## Don’t compromise on critical missions.

Overview

High-pressure hostage situations require a fast response vehicle that can take your team safely to the scene and provide the tools and technology you need.

Frontline Communications’ hostage negotiation vehicle (HNV) does it all. Built on the Mercedes Benz Sprinter 3500HC extended chassis, this 2 to 5-person mobile command center has a custom isolated negotiator’s booth. It’s built to handle most local emergencies or special operations in a community.

The Frontline Communications HNV is a purpose-built crisis negotiation vehicle available with a wide range of hostage negotiator equipment options and our rigorously tested safety features that meet or exceed CAL OSHA requirements.

When it comes to your Frontline Communications vehicle, you won’t need to compromise.
