[trinex7]

Thanks Singapore!!! Now greater protection for the man fighting terrorist. Sigh.

[xxxToomy07]

Thank you Singapore, I never knew these vehicles were made there!

[tommychimp1989]

@SturmFuhrerBeppo Its a completley different vehicle this and the BVS10 share nothing in common apart from the fact its articulated with tracks

[0jesse10397]

@sLeighTkiLLa Why that?

[tamweiwen]

Hi i am Chines Singapore i am 20 years old go army and one to say this what the fuck that our new warthog and they give it to them what the hell is going on no one tell me that we giving our wathog to the british someone tell me what the god damn is going on?!

[xUK91x]

@tamweiwen its not being given, its being bought. This also opens up buisness between the nations and Singapore can then make a deal back with the British, unfortuantely the only thing they will not be able to get hold of is the British Challenger II tank designs ;) Toughest tank in the world.

[USAmilitarypower]

@tamweiwen youtube is band in china and didnt bae make this

[teddybrawl]

@tamweiwen dude, get your english right, we're selling it to them, not giving it away -.-

[borneomotor]

Feeling proud of it :D if you were like me From the Amoured Forces .

[carwyn345]

wonder if it floats ? (japaneese)



[kelnology]

@carwyn345 yup i saw them doing river crossing back when i was still serving my national service...i was amazed when i first saw it rolling pass me..it is ridiculously quiet...even quieter than the stupid 5 ton man truck...

[jakethepeg1066]

@kelnology 6 ton man sv

[kelnology]

@jakethepeg1066 Whats that?i only know 1.5,3,5,7 and 10 tonner.. care to enlighten pls?

[jameshu35055]

It's a Bionix in disguse

[prime1789]

Looks aside, it is actually different from the Viking. Being the only two companies in the world offering such systems, they went to Court(BAE and STK). STK won and went on to sell the Broncos or Warthog in competing markets.

[laubeatz]

why yellow lol =)

[Kordax21]

looks like an asian copy of the BV Hägglund, a swedish heavy terrain vehicle, used by many armys in the world ( like Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Austria, and many more ) ... and i know that BV is a doughter Firm of an British Firm but i think its not ok to support asian copy firms .... Original Rights should be respected by all nations

[Wingchunskunk]

@Kordax21 yea something like that but we add more stuff in there

[dermapteratenuis]

@Kordax21

With that kinda logic, every car manufacturer's guilty of copying each other since they all build cars with 4-wheels. pfsh*

Just because it looks similiar doesn't mean it's a blatant wholesale copy.

[bisleybob3]

Looks a good piece of kit.

[Sh3pardMelody]

its a fucking roller coaster

[humpingbird]

translation pls?~ LOL

[moktarbom]

lol lion dancers to celebrate the sale

[IXXVIIX]

Most Military have the Hagglunds BV204, BV206. This Singapore version is bigger , steel, and have a bigger payload.

[Conservativepacheat]

is it a new model? because many military have this vehicle? or the news reporters think it's new because there ill informed

[akinkhoo]

@Conservativepacheat it's an uprated model and slightly longer, but it is news because UK made order for it, previously Singapore has only sold equipment to developing countries, this marks a milestone that the quality of military equipment is good enough for developed country to use.

The singapore manufacturers has tried to sell to China too, which is why Chinese news express interest. however China has not express interest

[smarzotais]

so... its one of those british winter-track arctic truck/tank things... painted khacki and with tires. wtf... same thing...

[Elitepoosniff]

Its been updated.

[axy1982]

dnt we already have this? the marines hav had it for years????? wierd

[Doulea82]

@axy1982 yeah aint they vikings?

[Aliasify]

@axy1982 Nope, we have the viking which is being removed from theatre because of short comings, to be replaced by the bronco, the version in the video.

[acidcasual07]

Looks like a good peice of kit. Maybe they have designed it so when an IED goes of the tracks tear away. then get them replaced back at base?
