The RAM-2000 is a high-performance
light-weight armored vehicle combining
the finest in multi-mission wheeled
designs with advanced human
engineering.
RAM-2000 utilizes a robust and flexible
structure allowing it to be outfitted and
configured to perform a variety of
military, paramilitary, policing and peacekeeping roles.
With high terrain capability, a solid power-to-weight ratio and excellent armored
protection, the RAM-2000 excels as a recon vehicle, light infantry fighting
vehicle, weapons platform, troop carrier, command platform, frontline utility and
logistics transporter, riot control vehicle, etc. |

Primary Design Features |
| |
In a basic troop carrier configuration, the RAM-2000 carries up to eight fully
equipped personnel, commander and driver included.
Possessing a straightforward robust design with simple maintenance
requirements built in, RAM-2000 is continuously mission-ready, even under the
toughest of operating conditions (hot dry deserts, mountainous terrain, icy
winter conditions, waterways, etc.).
RAM-2000 has excellent maneuverability and handling in both on-road and offroad
conditions, open-country, and rough terrain. RAM-2000 can ford rivers
and streams at one-meter depths.
With a low silhouette, low profile and low center of gravity, the RAM-2000
makes for a difficult target. Its advanced 2x4 and 4x4 automotive design draws
on the best features of proven all-terrain ground vehicle designs, including
earlier generations of Ramta's venerable RAM vehicle still in production and
operational in various countries worldwide. |

Armored Protection |
| |
RAM-2000 armored construction provides full ballistic protection from shortrange
arms fire up to 7.62mm armored piercing ammunition with optional
configurations possible for higher ballistic protection depending on customer
requirements.
The unique RAM-2000 monocoque armored shell construction coupled with
extensively tested and operationally-proven geometric shaping deflects energy
and blast waves associated with mine detonation or enemy-fired explosive
munitions. This hull design impedes the threat of the vehicle from overturning
under combat conditions.
With a fundamental design requirement that the highest level of crew
survivability be integrated into a robust ground vehicle, the vehicle's wheels
have been located at the platform's extremities with the RAM-2000 troop
compartment located in between. This vehicle configuration combined with the
RAM-2000 energy-attenuating hull design affords the crew a higher level of
protection against landmines and other explosive devices. |

Operational Simplicity & Reduced Driver Workload |
| |
Operational Simplicity & Reduced Driver Workload
Incorporating advanced human engineering while applying rigorous military
standards for all-terrain vehicles, gives the RAM-2000 driver a vehicle that is
simple and comfortable to operate.
Training required for RAM-2000 operation is minimal. Any driver familiar with
four-wheel vehicle operations will immediately become accustomed to the
RAM-2000.
Specially designed dash board instruments, shift levers and vehicle controls
have been conveniently located to allow the driver and crew to concentrate and
focus more on the mission than on vehicle operation and safety. |

| |
Maintenance |
| |
The RAM-2000 automotive system utilizes the highest degree of readily
available commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components and parts available in
order to simplify vehicle maintenance and servicing, while maintaining military
standards. COTS maximization lowers the specific cost of vehicle maintenance,
as well as life cycle costs over time.
Simple to open engine hoods and compartment doors provide easy access to
all mechanical, electrical and engine components of the vehicle while reducing
the number and types of tools needed to be carried onboard. |

| |
Air and Sea Transport |
| |
Low overall weight of the RAM-2000 coupled with the vehicle's relative
compactness and low silhouette makes the RAM-2000 highly suitable for airtransport
by either fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft.
The RAM-2000's ability to ford water obstacles at one-meter depths allows it to
make unassisted embarkation/debarkation from shore landing craft. |
