The French government has donated 15 new vehicles, along with weapons, communication, and ballistic equipment to Cameroon for use by the country's Special Forces.
The handover to the Cameroonian military took place on 29 November in Yaoundé during a ceremony attended by Defence Minister Joseph Beti Assomo and French Ambassador Gilles Thibault. The total value of the donation exceeds EUR655,000.
A French military source told IHS Jane's on 7 December that ten Peugeot P4 all-terrain vehicles, three ACMAT VLRA tactical trucks, one of which is configured as a medical support vehicle, and a pair of Renault TRM 2000 light trucks were donated.
