2024 Lenco Bearcat

1,146 Bricks

In 2023, following a rise in high-risk calls and tactical operations, the Bricksmill County Sheriff’s Office began looking to modernize its aging armored fleet. Their existing BearCats, placed into service in 2005 and 2014, were becoming increasingly unreliable and outdated for the demands of modern policing.

In 2024, the agency placed an order for two new Lenco BearCat G3s, which were later designated SWAT-2 and SWAT-5. Upon arrival, both vehicles were integrated into the fleet, though initial deployments remained limited as the older units continued to handle the majority of callouts.

That changed in 2025, when SWAT-3, a 2014 BearCat with ongoing mechanical issues, was involved in a serious collision with a semi-truck and trailer. The vehicle was deemed beyond repair and subsequently scrapped, marking a turning point for the department’s armored operations. Following the loss of SWAT-3, SWAT-2 was moved into a primary response role, taking over as the agency’s frontline tactical vehicle. SWAT-5 assumed a secondary role, providing support and backup during high-risk incidents.

Since then, the two newer BearCats have become the backbone of the Bricksmill County Sheriff’s Office tactical fleet, reflecting a shift toward improved reliability and readiness in the face of increasingly complex situations.
