You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''P4''' is an unarmoured [[off-road vehicle]] used by the [[military of France]]. It was manufactured by [[Peugeot]] but is now manufactured by [[Panhard]]. It is to be replaced with the [[Petit Véhicule Protégé|PVP]] by Panhard. The P4 is a derivative of the [[Mercedes-Benz G-Class|Mercedes Geländewagen]] military version built under license by Peugeot for the [[Military of France|French military]]. Peugeot did not have a licence to export the vehicle anywhere else than to the countries bound to France by defence agreements.

== History ==
In the late 1960s, the French army decided that its 10,001 [[Hotchkiss M201|Jeeps]] needed to be replaced. The replacement vehicle would carry four men with radio equipment and would be small enough to be parachuted and transported by plane.

After many technical issues, the new vehicle was designed in the 1970s. Agreement was reached between Peugeot and Mercedes to co-produce the vehicle on a 50:50 basis. Peugeot installed the engine of the [[Peugeot 504]] and the [[Transmission (mechanics)|transmission]] of the [[Peugeot 604]] on the [[Mercedes-Benz G-Class]]; it also installed the electrical systems, welded the exterior and painted the car. The rest was done by Mercedes.  The plant in [[Sochaux]] did the final assembly. The first prototype was tested in 1978, beginning a long series of tests and trials, notably a rally in south [[Algeria]] with a petrol and a diesel P4.

The [[French Army]] ordered 15,000 P4s, both petrol and diesel versions; in 1981, the order was reduced to 13,500 units with the downsizing of the Army. From 1985, production was transferred to [[Panhard]] in [[Marolles-en-Hurepoix]], where 6,000 vehicles were produced. In 2016, P4s were donated to the Cameroonian military for its special forces units.<ref name="CAM">((Cite web|url=http://www.defenceweb.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46244:france-donates-military-equipment-to-cameroon&catid=50:Land&Itemid=105|title = France donates military equipment to Cameroon|date = 12 December 2016))</ref>

A civilian version was made, but encountered little success because of the high price and a poor [[power-to-weight ratio]].

In 2016, the French military ordered 500 Technamm Masstech T4 VLTP VP vehicles as an interim replacement to the P4.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.joint-forces.com/features/16460-french-technamm-masstech-t4-vltp-vp|title = French Technamm Masstech T4 VLTP VP|date = 3 August 2018))</ref>

===P4D===
In 1992, the Army converted around 1,300 petrol P4s into diesel P4D (''P4 Diesel'') models.<ref name="MT">((cite web |url=http://www.military-today.com/trucks/peugeot_p4.htm |title = Peugeot P4 Light Utility Vehicle ((!)) Military-Today.com))</ref> The conversion was executed by Panhard (1300 VLTT) and the ''Établissements régionaux du matériel''. The engine, a 2.5-liter Peugeot four-cylinder, is the same as used in the original diesel P4.

===P4P===
The P4 P (''P4 Protégé'', "protected P4") is an armoured version,<ref name="MT"/> with 80 units built in the 1990s. An armored version was made at the request of Peugeot by CBH Institutions (Constructions Blindées of Hardricourt).

This version has been evaluated by the French Army and commissioned by the Navy for the Protection of sensitive sites. Five different versions were produced.

* P4 CBH AKIS 2400
* P4 CBH SUPER AKIS 2850
* P4 CBH 3120

The four digits at the end of the name signify the three wheelbases of ((convert|2400|,|2850|, or|3120|mm|in|1|abbr=on)) that were available. Some P4 armored CBH have been manufactured for use in [[Lebanon]].

An operation Manufacturer and the [[GIGN]] was conducted in November 1988 for testing rolling over 24 hours. The P4 Shielded CBH AKIS blue police carried out the range of 1000&nbsp;km to the average of 134.5&nbsp;km per hour and the total distance of 3180&nbsp;km in 24 hours is an average of 132.5&nbsp;km / hour with 4 men on board. The engine was a 2.5-litre turbo exchanger amended by CBH, which had an output of 150&nbsp;hp.

===P4 VPS===
[[File:French SF1 Domenjod 120618.jpg|thumb|A Panhard VPS in service with French special forces.]]

Version of the P4 for French special forces. Contract was awarded to Panhard by the DGA in 2005.<ref name="ARVPS">((Cite web|url=https://www.armyrecognition.com/french_army_france_wheeled_armoured_vehicle_uk/vps_light_4x4_special_forces_patrol_vehicle_data_sheet_specifications_description_pictures_video.html|title=VPS 1 Light 4x4 Special Forces patrol vehicle data pictures video &#124; French army france wheeled armoured vehicle UK &#124; French army military equipment vehicle UK))</ref> 51 VPSes were brought to service.<ref name="ARVPS"/>

They're equipped with armored floors to provide landmine protection.<ref name="ARVPS"/>

The VPS can be transported by either a C-160 Transall or C-130 Hercules.<ref name="ARVPS"/>

===P4 VIPAIR===
The P4 VIPAIR (Véhicule d'Intervention et de Projection Air – Air Intervention and Projection Vehicle) was created by Arquus in 2016,<ref name="ARQ">((Cite web|url=https://www.arquus-defense.com/newsroom/news/arquus-delivers-last-vipair-p4-vehicle-french-air-and-space-force|title = Arquus delivers the last VIPAIR P4 vehicle to the French Air and Space Force &#124; Arquus))</ref> which converted 19 P4 ASPICs.<ref>((cite web |url=https://www.edrmagazine.eu/delivery-of-the-last-vipair-p4-to-the-french-air-force |title = Arquus: the last VIPAIR P4 delivered to the French Air Force - EDR Magazine|date = 15 October 2020))</ref>
