The VAB, spearhead of French military mobility
The Armored Front Vehicle (VUV) was born in the 1970s from an urgent need to modernize the French army's troop transport capabilities. Developed jointly by Panhard and Renault Trucks Defense, this light armored vehicle revolutionized French military vehicle design with its exceptional versatility.
Commissioned in 1976, the VAB stands out for its innovative modular configuration, allowing it to be adapted to multiple missions: personnel transport, reconnaissance, command, and even logistical support. Its transport version's capacity to carry up to ten crew members makes it a major strategic asset.
With more than 5,000 units produced and exported to around fifteen countries, the VAB quickly established itself as one of the most remarkable commercial successes of the French military industry, demonstrating French technological excellence on international markets.
Vérem, French excellence in model cars
During the VAB's heyday in the 1980s and 1990s, the Vérem brand established itself as one of the leading names in French model cars. Specializing in the faithful reproduction of civilian and military vehicles, the French company developed recognized expertise in die-casting and attention to detail.
Founded with the ambition of democratizing the passion for automobiles and the military, Vérem has built its reputation on the precision of its reproductions and the quality of its finishes. The brand supports the growth of thematic collections by offering accessible models while preserving a remarkable level of detail, particularly appreciated by collectors of military vehicles and enthusiasts of contemporary history.
A legend born in theaters of operations
The history of the VAB extends far beyond French barracks to the epic tale of France's foreign interventions . Since the 1980s, these armored vehicles have accompanied French forces on every continent, from Chad to Lebanon, from the Ivory Coast to Afghanistan.
A striking anecdote testifies to the legendary robustness of the VAB: during Operation Daguet during the Gulf War in 1991, French crews recounted how their VABs crossed the sandstorms of the Iraqi desert without incident, where other, more sophisticated vehicles showed their limitations. This exceptional reliability forged the international reputation of the French armored vehicle.
The VAB also became a symbol of the modernization of the French army in the 1980s. Its distinctive silhouette, with its eight wheels and distinctive turret, marked a generation of soldiers and inspired respect and confidence. More than just a military tool, it embodied the technological evolution of the French armed forces towards greater mobility and operational efficiency.
Even today, after more than four decades of service, the VAB continues to equip numerous units around the world, testifying to the relevance of its original design and the quality of French engineering in the military field.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
