Defense industry: The French Army’s armored recovery vehicles will soon be assembled in Alsace, ‘This is strategic for our community

This Army contract marks Soframe’s first military order in 15 years. The Alsatian company, a subsidiary of Lohr, will produce around twenty armored recovery vehicles – massive steel behemoths weighing 35 tons and standing over 3 meters tall – at its Duppigheim facilities. The deal, worth tens of millions of euros, represents a significant industrial milestone.
