SandCat is an Israeli-designed family of mission-configurable armored 4x4 vehicles.
Plasan's SandCat family was developed around the idea of applying advanced armor and survivability engineering to commercial chassis-based vehicles. This gives military, police, border, and special-operations users a protected platform without the cost and weight of larger armored personnel carriers. The family has evolved through multiple generations and mission packages.
SandCat vehicles use composite protection, 4x4 mobility, and mission-specific layouts.
SandCat variants can be configured for patrol, command, special operations, medical evacuation, remote weapons, anti-tank missile carriage, or internal-security tasks. The platform's core advantage is flexible protected mobility on a relatively compact chassis. Protection and payload depend on variant, but the family is designed to balance armor, off-road movement, and urban maneuverability.
SandCat is used where users need protected patrol mobility without a large armored vehicle footprint.
Operationally, SandCat fits border security, convoy escort, police tactical response, light military patrol, and special-mission roles. It is useful in urban or constrained environments where a full-size MRAP may be too large. Its limits are those of light armored 4x4s: it complements heavier combat vehicles rather than replacing them.
