PARS 4x4 FNSS
4x4 Anti-tank wheeled armored vehicle - Turkey
Description
The PARS 4X4 has been designed to undertake special operational roles such as advanced surveillance, antitank, command and control, low silhouette, and amphibious capabilities. The vehicle with its crew of 4 can operate in deep and fast-flowing water without any preliminary preparation.
The PARS 4X4 can operate on any rough terrain with a low center of gravity, a fully independent suspension system, ABS-assisted hydraulic disc brakes, low ground pressure, and increased angles of approach and departure. Thanks to the hydraulic recovery winch, located at the front of the vehicle, it has the ability to provide self-recovery when required. The mobility of the PARS 4X4 is enhanced by its central tire inflation system, and it also has a run flat capability thanks to its in-tire solid disc system. The PARS 4X4 has a maximum speed of 110 km/h on asphalt and a range of 700 km, as well as an automatic transmission with an axle lock for use on slippery surfaces and soft soil. The driver's cabin features transparent ballistic armor which offers a wide field of view for both the driver and the crew. The PARS 4X4 also provides the driver and the commander with integrated night and day vision cameras that enable operations in night drives with or without using blackout lights. The command and warning panels and the height-adjustable mine-protected seats have been specifically developed for the commander, driver, gunner, and dismounts.

| Design and protection |
|
The design of PARS 4x4 is very unique with the crew seated at the front with the driver at the left and the commander at the right. The driver's cabin features a transparent ballistic armor that offers a wide field of 180° view for both the driver and the crew. Three more seats are available back on the driver and commander positions. The engine compartment is located at the rear of the vehicle. Each side of the hull is equipped with one single door that opens to the front. The hull and all the windows of the vehicle provide a high level of protection against ballistic threats according to the NATO specifications STANAG 4569. The armor used to protect the vehicle also offers protection against the blast and explosion of land mines and IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices).
