The Styker NBCRV provides Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical detection and surveillance for battlefield visualization, and situational awareness to increase unit combat power. The core of the NBCRV is its on-board integrated NBC sensor suite, and integrated meteorological system. An NBC positive overpressure system minimizes cross-contamination of samples and detection instruments, provides crew protection, and allows extended operation at Mission Oriented Protective Posture.
