Poly Technologies is a Chinese state-owned defense-trade company associated with China Poly Group and Poly International. In this catalog it is tied to the CS/VP3 MRAP, a Chinese mine-resistant armored vehicle credited to Poly Technologies in defense reference sources.

1 weapon systems

Poly Technologies emerged from China's state-backed defense-trade sector and is described in Poly Group history as the organization tasked with importing foreign military equipment and exporting domestic military equipment. Current official Poly Group material presents international trade and special-equipment exports through Poly International, the group platform that covers defense and security products.

For this archive, Poly Technologies is treated as the canonical builder facet for systems where source material identifies Poly Technologies directly, including the CS/VP3 MRAP. The profile separates builder and export context from conflict-use claims, which remain sourced in individual weapon records.
