Burkina : Un ingénieur met au point un véhicule blindé léger pour l’Armée
In Burkina Faso, mechanical and energy engineer Thierry Alain Belemkoabga has built a light armored vehicle. The model, exhibited at the 2nd International Synergy Safety, Defense and Security Exhibition (SYSDEF), is designed for use in assault operations in the field.

"We stayed in our workshops, we studied the project, we did the design..."
According to its manufacturer, it addresses a very specific problem: guaranteeing optimal safety for soldiers in the field.

“We started with observations, information gathering, what we see on social media, and we realized there was a problem that needed a solution. So we stayed in our workshops, studied the project, did the design and computer-aided design, and moved on to the manufacturing phase of the first prototype. The problem was that the troops needed to be safe in the field, able to conduct rapid operations and perform tactical withdrawals. That's the problem that led us to develop this vehicle,” said Mr. Belemkoabga.

"Everything related to the interior, equipment, and everything else was designed and manufactured in Burkina Faso."
The machine was almost entirely built on site.

“We started with the chassis of a vehicle we know very well, but everything related to the passenger compartment, equipment, and everything else was designed and manufactured in Burkina Faso. There are even the motors that power the turrets. We sized them and had them manufactured by a manufacturer, so these are motors that you cannot find as is on the market because we sized them,” explained the Burkinabe engineer.

Note that the prototype is equipped with a thermal telescopic camera that allows you to see everything within a radius of 10 km.

Chez eux, c'est le travail, la recherche, l'innovation.
Bravo aux frères Burkinabés!
