Terradyne Armored Vehicles designs, tests, manufactures, and supports Gurkha armored vehicles for law-enforcement, government, military, border-security, medical-evacuation, and security customers from Newmarket, Ontario. Public company and industry sources describe the business as a specialist armored-vehicle producer rather than a diversified defense prime.

The company's Gurkha family includes LAPV, MPV, RPV, and civilian limited-production configurations built around commercial-truck architecture with ballistic and blast protection options. Terradyne positions the shared Gurkha platform around protected mobility, road certification, field serviceability, and mission-specific body configurations.

Recent company coverage highlights continued Gurkha variant development, including a law-enforcement MPV FORT explosive-ordnance-disposal configuration delivered to Tampa and a TEMS armored-ambulance adaptation marketed to police tactical medical customers.
