The Masstech T4 designed in 2016 based on a call for tenders from the French Army.[1] Faced with replacing the Peugeot P4 and while waiting for the ACMAT VT4,[2] the French army ordered 500 units, with the first one delivered in April 2017 and the last in November 2018.[3][4] The Special Operations Command also ordered 50 copies of the Masstech Recamp[5] 250 exemplary for the G5 Sahel joint force and 60 for Jordan[6] in 2019.
In mid-November 2022, France gave a first batch of Masstech T4 to Tunisia, with the ambition of providing 100 copies. In December 2022, a new contract for 128 units for the G5 Sahel Joint Force was announced.[7]
The base of the Masstech T4 is built by Toyota in Japan, from the HZJ 76 model. Technamm then carries out the militarization in Aix-en-Provence. In particular, the vehicle is equipped with a PR4G radio, a SITEL terminal and a DAGR GPS. It can carry four or five passengers.[3] Deployed only in France with Opération Sentinelle,[5] its engine, rustic and compatible with African[3] and military fuels,[8] allows its shipment to OPEX.[3]
Its unit cost is 70,000 euros, 60% of which goes to Masstech.[8]
