SRC trucks take a standard truck body that we custom heavily armor front to back to protect the security forces using them.
Our most common customization is to add a riot suppressing high capacity water cannon to the truck.
The large capacity water tank is mounted on a removable skid in the bed of the truck so that it can be used inside the truck, quickly deployed in a hot zone for standalone usage, or to be easily replaced with other skid mounted devices.
The controls of the truck and the water cannon are all easily managed by one driver if need be, however the truck has space for personnel transport and extra security forces.
This represents a highly economical approach to both personnel transport, armor protection, and riot control.
Armortek Custom Armored Cars has created this SRC truck design to specifically address the increasing need of controlling crowds in hot zones around the world.
We keep the design simple, functional, and economical.
However, as with all of our custom built armored vehicles, we can add any number of enhancements and add-ons to provide the necessary features desired by our customers including: oil slicks, tack drop, radio jamming equipment, gun ports, and the list goes on.
“These new SRC (Skid Mounted Riot Control) Trucks provide highly portable and economical solutions for common riot suppression control devices such as water cannons, and package it in an armored truck to protect all those involved in securing hot zones and riot areas,” says company owner Mr. Clint Murphy.
Putting them on a removable skid means the truck can drop these items in hot zone areas, or operate them from within the truck.
We already have orders processed for the U.N. and we are aggressively pricing these trucks to attract interest from police and security forces from around the world.”
