| The Varta can transport troops in a safe environment thanks to the specialized 560mm steel used to manufacture the vehicle’s capsule, which can protect the crew from small arms, up to armour piercing 7.62mm, or fragments (Level 2 by STANAG 4569). The V-shaped hull offers protection from mine blasts up to 6kg TNT. The fighting module can mount a 7.62mm or 12.7mm machine gun and there are ten firing ports able to accommodate UBGL (under barrel grenade launchers). The vehicle has a load capacity of 3t and has a crew of 2 plus a gunner and anti-mine seats for 8 in the rear. The engine is a V6 turbo diesel with a top road speed of 120km/h. The run flat tyres can be inflated or deflated by the driver whilst driving to match terrain conditions. It also has a winch and front and rear cameras. Varta also has a high speed fire suppression system for the crew and engine compartment with UV and IR sensors that can indicate combustion in 3 milliseconds and suppress it in 250 milliseconds. |
