Ancra provides versatile, cost-effective and reliable equipment and solutions for all branches of the military.

Humvees and More

For the many versions of the multi-purpose Humvee – weapons carrier, armored TOW missile variant and maxi-/mini-ambulance – Ancra supplies vital logistic-handling components:

• Adjustable gunner platform for stable footing in turret area
• Turret locking mechanism to position and prevent rotation during firing
• Tool tray for storing emergency tools such as picks and shovels
• Bulk storage nets, straps and brackets for securing litters and oxygen bottles in maxi-/
  mini-ambulances during all-terrain maneuvers.

Ancra has served the military all over the world with versatile innovations. Ancra has improved the design of armament pallets. Prior to a redesign effort, projectiles were banded with steel strapping, stored and transported on wooden pallets with wooden covers. During the development of a new steel pallet and cover, Ancra designed a replacement for the steel banding – a bayonet-type latch that secures the cover to the pallet, forming a fully reconstitutable projectile pallet that’s been approved by the Army and Navy for 155 mm projectiles.

Center of Excellence

Extending our corporate commitment to military service, Ancra has opened our first Military Center of Excellence, a dedicated production facility for our military products and systems. This facility in Springfield, Ohio, expedites the manufacturing of cargo nets and other cargo related assemblies. The center marks the future direction for our company, as we develop new, innovative programs for support of our products and to deliver superior customer service.
