The Roshel Senator is a wheeled military armoured car produced by Roshel of Canada, based on a Ford F-550 chassis.[2] As an APC, it is designed to protect against small arms fire.[3] While designed as effectively a highly versatile SWAT platform, for peacekeeping and law enforcement activities,[4] it is capable of light duty as an armoured personnel carrier (APC) or infantry mobility vehicle (IMV).
Roshel classifies it as an APC.[4]
