Please, note!
These vehicles are in use by the Dutch MILITARY Police.
They are, by law, restricted (under normal circumstances) to police tasks within the armed forces and boarder control. Their tasks within the army cover all police tasks, support during covoys and special transport, and in times of war the handling of PoW’s. Very seldom you may see them guarding transports of the Dutch National Bank.
