At the exhibition the SISU 8x8 truck presented the highest protection level and mobility, thus raising well earned interest among the visitors at Norwegian Sisu importer’s, Elverum Maskin AS, stand.
In connection with the exhibition at Gardemoen, the SISU 8x8 truck made some 4000 kms journey within Northern hemisphere. On the route the truck visited Lofoten isles to attend an annual Live Firing Exercise of NASAMS, arranged by Kongsberg Defence and Aerospace AS together with the Royal Norwegian Air Forces. The Live Firing event took it’s place at Andøya Test Center in Nordmela on June 9th, leaving the truck just one day in between to be driven down to Transportmessa over a distance of more than 1500 kms.
On the tour the SISU 8x8 off-road Military Truck again showed it’s skills to manage long distances rapidly also on paved roads, as well as carry loads reliably in varying conditions.
