The Tatra 815-7 is a heavy army logistics vehicle made by the Czech company Tatra produced since 2008, with axle variations of 4×4, 6×6, 8×8 and 10×10. Chassis variants 10×8, 12×12 and 12×8 are also available.

Tatra knew the exceptional qualities of its T-815 chassis, but to be among the top of the army vehicle manufacturers, it was decided to develop a new vehicle that would be transportable by the most widespread NATO transport aircraft C-130 Hercules. Tatra took the engines and transmissions of the 815-6 model, the chassis T-815 has been modified and a completely new cab has been developed, it is lower, more durable and easy to armor.

In 2004 a prototype of model 4×4 appeared at Eurosatory and other defence and security trade shows. Several other prototypes were later built ranging from 6x6 to 10x10. The cabin is all-metal, tiltable, its construction allows easy additional armoring in various degrees of ballistic protection. Cab tightness allows the use of overpressure filtering.

Tatra 815-7 serves in the Army of the Czech Republic and the Slovak Armed Forces. On the chassis of the Tatra 815-7 were built several armored transporters, such as the Czech VEGA 4x4, the Egyptian Fahd 300, the French Nexter Titus, the Israeli Wildcat APC, the Jordanian Al-Wahsh, the Nigerian Ara and the United Arab Emirates Legion.


Tatra 815-7 is also used in the civilian sector, as a mobile cranes and a fire trucks.
