Powered
by a 330 hp high-sulphur fuel tolerant MAN diesel engine and making use
of the extensive all-wheel drive expertise of MAN and Achleitner, the
Survivor R combines excellent mobility and driving/ handling characteristics
in all operating environments. The armoured monocoque cabin provides very high levels of protection and one of the highest internal volumes in its class. With an unladen weight of 11,000 kg and up to 4,000 kg of military payload the Survivor R offers an outstanding payload to weight ratio in the 15,000 kg vehicle class. This combination of protection, workspace and payload makes Survivor R the ideal platform for requirements involving various mission kits and complex systems integrations. The Survivor R is air transportable inside the C-130 Hercules transport aircraft. With through-life support based on the worldwide service, support and manufacturing networks of Rheinmetall and MAN, the Survivor R can offer users both: supportability, high levels of operational availability and genuine service longevity. |
