NIMR Automotive

NIMR Automotive is a United Arab Emirates military-vehicle manufacturer within EDGE Group's Platform & Systems cluster, focused on light and medium-weight wheeled tactical and armoured vehicles. Its catalog relevance comes through the AJBAN family of 4x4 protected mobility vehicles, alongside broader NIMR product lines such as HAFEET 6x6 vehicles and JAIS MRAP platforms.

1 weapons

NIMR Automotive designs, engineers, manufactures, integrates, and supports wheeled military vehicles from its Abu Dhabi base. Official company material describes complete in-house design and production capability for armoured and soft-skinned platforms, with mission-system integration and through-life support as part of the offering.

For this catalog, NIMR is the builder attached to the NIMR AJBAN entry. The wider company context matters because AJBAN sits inside a UAE land-systems portfolio that also includes HAFEET 6x6 tactical vehicles and the JAIS mine-resistant vehicle family.
