Thailand’s Defence Technology Institute (DTI) and ST Engineering have teamed up to integrate a 4×4 light utility vehicle with the Singapore company’s 120 mm Ground Deployed Advanced Mortar System (GDAMS) and Adder Light remote weapon station (RWS).
An official from ST Engineering told

on 8 November at the Defense & Security 2023 exhibition in Bangkok that the vehicle is newly developed, with testing scheduled to take place early in 2024. The RWS displayed on the vehicle at the exhibition is armed with 7.62 mm machine gun.
The official said the vehicle chassis and engine used in the configuration is agnostic. He added that while the armament on the vehicle was built in Singapore, localisation is possible depending on the scale of any requirement. DTI and ST Engineering plan to propose the design to the Royal Thai Armed Forces.
ST Engineering unveiled the GDAMS at DSEI 2023 in London in September.
