The RG-32 Scout is a family of mine-resistant 4x4 light armoured vehicles made by BAE Systems Land Systems South Africa (formerly Land Systems OMC) in South Africa. It is based on the RG-31, which is already deployed worldwide with peace-keeping, security and combat forces. The vehicle crew is protected against 5.56x45mm NATO ball ammunition, grenades, firebombs, anti-personnel mines and side blasts. The five-seat version also offers protection against anti-tank mines and side blasts. Up to three RG-32s can be transported in a C-130 cargo aircraft.^[1]

The latest development of this vehicle is the RG-32M Galten. The RG-32M has undergone extensive "winterisation" modifications in Sweden; the RG-32M has proved to be equally effective at 49 °C in the desert sands of Africa and the Middle East as well as at −35 °C in Sweden's frozen wilderness^{[citation needed]}.
