Key Information
Design and protection level
[edit]The vehicle has a heavy-duty air conditioner, and the level of ballistic protection of the hull, glass, and combat tower reaches BR6, which is resistant to bullets caliber 7.62 x 51 mm, and there are 3 side and rear bolts for firing from inside the vehicle.[1] No indication is given on mine protection, the 235 mm ground clearance indicating that this vehicle should not be designed to operate in mine-risky areas. The vehicle is powered by a gasoline engine providing 228 hp, which gives it a considerable power-to-weight ration allowing a maximum speed of 165 km/h and maximum operational range of 650 km/h.[2][3]
