These workshops were received by the Kraken special forces unit, which can now perform repairs directly on-site, avoiding the need to evacuate equipment to repair bases.
Previously, LOCKER’s designers worked on converting civilian SUVs like the Mitsubishi L200 for military use, but the limited dimensions of these vehicles made it difficult to store all the necessary equipment. With the HMMWV, this problem was solved, allowing for the installation of more advanced and powerful equipment.
The mobile workshop is equipped with a variety of essential tools and devices, including lifting equipment, power sources, tire mounting equipment, welding equipment, professional hand tools, lamps, starters, and chargers. At the rear of the vehicle, there is a retractable locksmith’s workbench, ideal for short-term repairs.
Additionally, the Come Back Alive charity foundation has also delivered mobile workshops to the Ukrainian military, and in early 2024, Ukrainian philanthropists developed a new mobile service station and tire service for the armed forces.
