CORE has armoured vehicles, popularly known caveirões, used mainly in operations where conflict with drug traffickers is likely. The main purpose of these armoured vehicles is to protect trim elements and destroy barriers used by drug traffickers. Armoured vehicles are still essential in supporting the rescue of trapped police units and in removing the wounded from confrontations.
