The Ashok Leyland FAT is a family of all-terrain military trucks designed, developed and produced by Ashok Leyland as a field artillery tractor for towing guns. It is broadly based on the Super Stallion truck and began as a private venture to replace the Indian Army's ageing KrAZ-255 and Scania SBAT111S tractors, which were bought alongside the FH77B Bofors howitzers in 1986. Two versions exist: the 4x4, also called Topchi, rated to tow 3 tonnes with a 160 hp engine, and the 6x6, also called GTV, rated to tow 8 tonnes with a 360 hp Neptune series engine. In March 2016 the army contracted 450 of the 6x6 vehicles, the first batch was delivered in 2017, and more 4x4 and 6x6 vehicles were ordered in July 2023.
