FAUN TRACKWAY – the defence division of FAUN MV – has shipped three complete portable roadway systems for use by the Italian Ministry of Defence (MoD) on beach landing exercises.

JCB SPA, the Italian subsidiary of global vehicle manufacturer J C Bamford, has purchased 150 metres (3 x 50m) of FAUN’s Medium Ground Mobility System (MGMS) roadway and three specially designed beach dispensers for use on its medium-wheeled loading shovels.
The order is FAUN’s first with the Italian military, making it the latest addition to a roster of 30 armed forces that rely on its products around the world.

The MGMS roadway, which is capable of taking vehicle loads of up to 30 tonnes, are attached onto the beach dispensers and can be mounted on the chassis of any medium wheeled tractor.

Chris Kendall, business development manager from FAUN TRACKWAY, said: “A key element of our product design is enabling our TRACKWAY units to be integrated onto existing vehicles.

“This kind of versatility is invaluable to armed forces that may use a range of vehicles for different operations, including beach landings.”
