    Never an armed military vehicle, the Tactica is also suited for civilian use, namely by police forces. Ideally suited as an armoured personnel carrier the first Tacticas were based on Stonefield chassis and latterly by Mol chassis designed in-house at Glover Webb Limited of Hamble, Hampshire, UK. Variants included ambulances, APCs, water cannons, crowd control, perimeter control, and IEDD.
    Variants are in service with the following nations:

    Argentine Army: 10 deployed at United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus
    Ghana Army
    Indonesia (12 deployed by police force)
    Mauritius (14 deployed by military)
    Norway - (Norwegian Army, 3 in service as ambulances)
    Saudi Arabia - (Saudi Arabian National Guard and Ministry of Interior)
    - British Army beginning in 1993 in Northern Ireland; now all retired
