Soren it is not clear who refurbished or specifically resprayed the Alvis rapid intervention vehicles now in use in Afghanistan. There were three modifications applicable to the Alvis rapid intervention vehicles - using kits supplied by Angloco. FVS did some of the modifications on the rapid intervention vehicles sent to Afghanistan but they had no involvement in their respray. At the current time the Alvis RIV modification program is on hold awaiting further funding.
You might like to know that only CAT9 and Carmichael currently hold contracts to do modification work to the DFS fleet.
