Hungary Recieves 40 Turkish ‘Gidran’ Armored Vehicles, 100 More to be Built in the Country

Hungarian Defense Ministry Undersecretary Gaspar Maroth said Sunday that 40 units of Turkish-built ‘Gidran’ tactical wheeled armored vehicles were delivered to the country’s Armed Forces.

Gidran is the name given to Turkish company Nurol Makina's Ejder Yalçın 4x4 Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles, which are being produced under licenses.

Another 100 will be produced in Hungary, Maroth was quoted as saying by Turkish media.

Nurol Makina Hungary, a recently established branch, has signed a cooperation agreement for the production of armored vehicles in Hungary with the authorities of the Hungarian state and their partners.

The Ejder Yalçın 4x4 comes in different configurations that were developed for a variety of combat and support missions.
