New owner Patriarch Partners has renamed "Protected Vehicles, Inc." as "Mobile Armored Vehicles, LLC."
MAV has established one of those eternally "coming soon" Web sites. Currently it's under the old domain name.

BAE's new Panther
Photographs don't lie. Or so I've heard.
Based on the photographic evidence associated with this story, the BAE Panther for the U.S. Army is not the same animal as the BAE Panther that will serve the British armed forces. The latter vehicle was developed by Iveco, and Italian company.
Having two different armored vehicles known as the Panther, particularly where both get a BAE nameplate, permits this situation to create even more confusion than the duplication of the "Ridgeback" name.
Though it is worth noting that the name the Brits gave to the Cougar 4x4 version of the Mastiff (Cougar 6x6) drops the "e" unlike the Protected Vehicles version.
Oh. Newsflash. "Protected Vehicles Inc." is no more. The company has apparently emerged from bankruptcy reorganization with the name Mobile Armored Vehicles, LLC.
