European Defence Review
November 24, 2025 – The Swedish Defence Materiel Administration FMV, the Finnish Defence Forces Logistics Command and Sisu Auto signed in January 2024 a long-term FISE framework agreement covering the delivery of armoured military vehicles. Simultaneously, Sisu Auto received initial orders for over 250 SISU GTP vehicles. Since then, roughly 120 vehicles have already been delivered up-to-date, and both Customers have placed several additional orders for SISU GTP vehicles, too.
On 20th of November, the contracting parties have now updated the FISE frameworks agreement and agreed on approximately 300 additional SISU GTP vehicles to be delivered to both the Finnish and Swedish Defence Forces.
Along with these new orders, Sisu Auto is also preparing to supply the GTP products to a new, significant European market, further strengthening its position as one of Europe’s leading military vehicle manufacturers.
The company’s total order book now comprises of nearly 500 vehicles, with a total value reaching an all-time record of approximately EUR 400 million. More than 95 percent of the order book consists of military vehicle products, and a significant share is allocated for export deliveries.
“I am truly pleased with this new significant order. It demonstrates that our products are competitive and meet our customers’ performance requirements and operational needs. Sisu Auto’s export expansion into a new market is a key strategic milestone and clear proof that our growth plan is working,” says Tomi Gardemeister, CEO of Sisu Auto.
Sisu Auto’s successful SISU GTP product family already includes eleven different variants, ranging from troop transport and counter-drone vehicles to ambulances. Going forward, the company’s growth plan focuses on international expansion, product portfolio development, and lifecycle support enhancement.
The company’s forecasted revenue for 2025 is approximately EUR 80 million, with a production volume of just over 100 vehicles. For 2026, Sisu Auto targets production of over 200 vehicles, corresponding to a turnover exceeding EUR 160 million.
