Based on a militarized MAN TGM truck chassis and tried-and-tested engineering, the Survivor R uses only series-produced components, making it one of the most cost-effective solutions available today.
Powered by a 330 hp (242 kW) high-sulphur fuel tolerant MAN diesel engine and exploiting 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 a very high level of protection and one of the largest internal volumes in its class. With an unladen weight of 11,000 kg and a military payload of 4,000 kg, 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 ambulance on show at DSEI 2015 is able to transport two casualties on stretchers or three seated casualties plus one stretcher accompanied by two medical attendants. The medical equipment is comparable to a civilian paramedic ambulance. It contains advanced procedure equipment, heart monitors, medications and other supplies necessary to provide lifesaving tactical combat casualty care.
The Survivor R can be airlifted in a C-130 Hercules transport aircraft. With through-life support based on the worldwide service, logistical and manufacturing networks of Rheinmetall and MAN, the Survivor R offers users supportability, high levels of operational availability and excellent service longevity. |
