Koluman Tech of Türkiye has unveiled the ambulance variant of the Kisrak at SAHA 2026.
“This is new,” says Edip Gezici, Koluman Business Development Specialist. “We hope that the Turkish Ldand Forces will acquire the platform. We also want to export it and are in discussions with countries in Europe and the Middle East.”
Among the highlights of the vehicle is its powerful engine performance, with Its high-performance motor providing uninterrupted power even on the most challenging terrain. The vehicle’s advanced traction system provides superior grip and stability on uneven roads and steep slopes. Advanced control systems provide superior steering and maneuvering capabilities in narrow and complex terrains.
The ambulance variant features a NATO AMedP-2 standard stretcher system and a dedicated resuscitation unit. The platform integrates a high-capacity four-person oxygen-supported respiratory system. “It ensures safe casualty evacuation in the steepest geographies with its 60 % gradeability and 30% side slope capability. It has a bigger capacity than Unimog and is more powerful. Kisrak is a 4x4 multipurpose tactical platform; it has two other variants – the Kisrak Refueler and the Kisrak Tactical Wheeled Vehicle,” adds Gezici.
Also displayed at the event is Derman armored tactical wheeled vehicle (TWV) with engine options from 517 HP to 625 HP. Equipped with Turbo Retarder Clutch (VIAB) technology, it delivers uninterrupted performance even in demanding terrain conditions. Its double-row armored cabin secures a crew of up to 5 against threats. With a payload capacity of up to 30 tons, it can serve as a fuel tanker, tank transporter, container carrier or recovery vehicle. The company also produces the Derman soft cabin TWV.
“We use Mercedes Benz chassis and engine for both Derman and Kisrak. Different variants of Derman are being used by the Turkish Army; we have sold more than 100 Derman units already. We believe both Kisrak and Derman have immense export potential.”
