Armament |
At this time the Hunter TR-12 is not armed, but a single hatch is mounted at the front on the top of the crew compartment. As all modern combat vehicles, the Hunter TR-12 can be equipped with single ring mount armed with a 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm machine gun. A remote controlled weapons system can be also fitted in option. At Miliopol 2011, the vehicle was equipped with small open roof turret with armour plates on 360°.

Design |
The crew compartment is composed by a mono-hull mounted on an independent chassis. The Hunter TR-12 offers superior protection against guns and rifles, making it ideal for high-risk areas prone to clashes and ambushes. The armor of the Hunter TR-12 provides a protection level B6 (Standard EN 1063). All de windows give the same level of protection. Each side of the hull is equipped with two small armoured windows and firing ports. Two doors are mounted at the front of each side of the crew compartment with small window and firing port.

Propulsion |
The Hunter TR-12 uses a 4x4 off-road chassis. With 4x4 wheel drive action, it is possible for the vehicle to reach remote, difficult-to-access places. The Hunter TR-12 is motorized with a 6,700 cc V8 Turbo Diesel engine coupled to an automatic transmission with 6 speeds and 1 reverse.
|
Accessories |
A spare wheel is fitted at the rear of the vehicle. In standard the Hunter TR-12 is equipped with dual air conditioning, radio am/FM/CD, searching lights and thermal camera. Blackout lights, snorkel and front winch are available in option.
