The RG-31 "Nyala" represents a notable addition to the MRAP (Mine-Resistant, Ambush-Protected) class of armored vehicles, manufactured by BAe Systems Land Systems OMC of South Africa. The challenges encountered by American and coalition forces during urban warfare in Afghanistan and Iraq underscored the critical need for well-armored vehicles in densely populated city areas. Traditional HUMVEEs proved vulnerable to Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and concealed land mines, prompting the implementation of official "up-armoring" kits as well as on-the-field modifications by personnel. Consequently, the demand for MRAP vehicles surged, leading to a plethora of offerings from various global manufacturers. Drawing from its extensive experience in past conflicts, South Africa's BAe Systems Land Systems OMC stands out as a leader in this competitive market segment.
