The project aims to develop and commercialize innovative components for military vehicles that combine advanced materials, electronics, and engineering solutions, significantly improving tactical effectiveness, safety, and operational reliability under extreme conditions.
The project will cover the entire technology development chain—from concept, prototyping, and testing to readiness for mass production. The project is implemented under the LIAA program “Commercialization Support” with ERDF funding. Contract No. 9.2-31-L-2026/13

SIA “VR Cars” is launching a project aimed at improving the company’s cybersecurity management and strengthening its digital resilience. As part of the project, a detailed risk assessment will be conducted, ICT resources will be inventoried and classified, and the development of mandatory cybersecurity documents will begin. Project activities include the preparation of a risk treatment plan, access and identity management policies, incident management procedures, and the development of a business continuity plan. The first employee and management training sessions are also being planned to raise awareness of cybersecurity risks and ensure preparedness in the event of incidents. The project will be implemented by October 15 and will ensure the security, transparency, and regulatory compliance of the company’s ICT resources. The project was implemented under the CFLA program “Cybersecurity Transformation for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises,” Contract No. KD/4/25/A/017
