Two TAHRs to be transported inside CH‑47 Chinook helicopters, with crews able to achieve combat readiness shortly after landing

Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) has unveiled a new tactical vehicle, the TAHR, for Germany's special forces, marking the first public appearance of the platform. The TAHR, built on IAI's ELTA ZD chassis and produced by Flensburg Technology Systems (FTS), is designed as a light, air-transportable vehicle with operational modifications requested by the German Special Forces Command (KSK).

The KSK aims to deploy the TAHR for its mission of conducting special forces operations worldwide and under all conditions successfully, requiring high mobility and a variety of suitable modes of transport depending on the situation, mission, and terrain.
