Press Release, Abu Dhabi, 19 December 2025: EDGE, one of the world’s leading advanced technology and defence groups, and EM&E Group, a leading Spanish company specialising in defence and security innovation and technology, have signed a technology transfer contract to produce the FEROX 6×6 armoured vehicle in Spain.
The agreement grants EM&E Group the vehicle’s design authority and the capability to distribute it to the European market. Under the contract between EM&E Group and EDGE entity NIMR, a leading manufacturer of mission-proven wheeled military vehicles, EM&E Group will produce the FEROX 6×6 in Spain, thereby expanding its product portfolio, while obtaining the capability to adapt it to the operational needs of European armies.
Based on the mission-proven NIMR JAIS 6×6, the FEROX is a highly versatile platform designed to operate in hostile environments, combining superior protection against ballistic threats, mines, and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) with high tactical mobility. EM&E Group will manufacture and integrate the FEROX at its recently established Linares (Jaén) facilities.
Fernando Fernández, CEO of EM&E Group, said: “This agreement represents a firm step forward in our commitment to strengthening the Spanish industrial fabric. Manufacturing this vehicle in Spain will not only reinforce our range of land-based solutions but also place our country at the centre of developing and producing these systems, contributing to European strategic autonomy.”
Khaled Al Zaabi, President – Platforms & Systems, EDGE, said: “Our transfer of technology to EM&E represents our growing commitment to supporting the modernisation requirements of European landward forces through establishing mutually beneficial partnerships within the European defence ecosystem. Aimed at bolstering the mission readiness of ground forces with advanced armoured vehicle solutions, the FEROX will offer regional forces the latest technology in protection and mobility.”
This collaboration is a milestone in the internationalisation strategy of both companies, reinforcing EM&E Group’s and NIMR’s commitment to promoting Europe’s industrial and technological autonomy in land defence with robust and adaptable products that align with EU and NATO requirements.
