The Ukrainian Armed Forces have received a new batch of Senator 4x4 armored vehicles, which are produced by the Canadian company Roshel and are based on the Ford F-550 commercial truck.
The Ukrainian Army is receiving these vehicles in various configurations. This time, they were delivered in a mine-resistant ambush-resistant (MRAP) configuration, capable of withstanding the detonation of charges equivalent to 8 kg of TNT and 7,62×39 mm bullets. The deliveries are being made under Operation UNIFIER, Ottawa's long-term military support program.
The new shipment is part of an aid package announced in February 2026, which includes 383 Senators from Roshel and 66 LAV-6 8x8 armored personnel carriers from GDLS Canada. A total of $1,5 billion is planned for the Ukrainian Armed Forces for the 2026-2027 fiscal year.
Equipped with a 6,7-liter V8 diesel engine, the Senator can reach speeds of up to 110 km/h and has a cruising range of approximately 1000 km. The Ukrainian Armed Forces use it for a wide range of missions, including troop transport, medical evacuation, and as a command vehicle.
At the end of May, Roshel announced that "more than 2500 vehicles" produced by the company had been deployed in active combat zones. While there are other customers for this platform, the primary customer is the Ukrainian Armed Forces, meaning the number is already in the thousands.
