Developed using internal funding, it stands out from the rest of the VAB range - which stretches back 40 years - on account of its significantly superior capabilities and a cost of acquisition and ownership far lower than its competitors. This 20-tonne 6x6, equipped with a 340 hp engine and automatic gearbox, can reach speeds of up to 105 kph and can be driven on the road.
Transporting two crew members and with a passenger capacity of 10 soldiers in its APC version, it meets the highest requirements in terms of crew protection. It can also be fitted with a CMI 90 mm turret gun with two crew members and four soldiers. |
