History of the URO VAMTAC ST5 VSP
URO VAMTAC is a Spanish four-wheel-drive military vehicle manufactured by UROVESA. It is similar in appearance and design to the U.S. Army Humvee. Over 2,000 vehicles have been delivered to the Spanish armed forces. Several other countries also operate the VAMTAC, and it has seen action in Afghanistan and Syria.
The Spanish army has used the VAMTAC in Afghanistan, Congo and Lebanon. However, Spain intends to replace or at least complement their VAMTAC UAMs with ambush-protected vehicles offering better protection. Several other countries use this vehicle. Some 1,200 units were delivered to the Spanish army under the initial 1998 contract. Around 60% of these were T5 models, and the remainder T3. By the end of 2009, around 900 more units had been delivered under the second contract, bringing the total number of vehicles purchased by the Spanish forces to 2,100.
