The Sri Lanka Navy Marine Corps presented three special Combat All-Terrain Vehicles (CATVs) to President Ranil Wickremesinghe at the President's Office on Thursday (27). 

The CATVs were produced locally and are a part of the new concept of the Sri Lanka Navy Marine Corps to combat illegal activities, terrorist activities, and various smuggling activities along the coast of Sri Lanka.

The CATVs will be used to combat various illegal activities and drug trafficking in Colombo and Mannar areas in the future. 

They are currently under the custody of the Sri Lanka Navy, and their operation was demonstrated for the President during the presentation.
