The Bearcat Armored Truck Series followed Lenco's successful Bear
Armored Truck Series, which was used by many American Law Enforcement
agencies. The name Bearcat is actually an acronym for
Ballistic
Engineered
Armored

Truck. The smaller Bearcat
was designed to perform duties the larger Bear vehicles were not able to
accomplish. Based on a upgraded Ford F550 Super-Duty truck
chassis, the first variant, the Bearcat G2, was so successful it
resulted in a modified Military variant and spawned a number of upgraded
versions in both Law Enforcement and Military versions. Advertised
duties that the Bearcat family can perform are Ambulance/Medical Evacuation,
Anti-Riot Protection, Armored Personnel Carrier,
Assault/Counter-Assault, Convoy Protection, Emergency Response/Rescue,
Explosive Ordnance Disposal, Gun Truck, Patrol, Perimeter Security,
