multi-role armored combat vehicle "Lazar" 8x8

development of Lazar multi-role armored combat vehicle

In service with Serbian Army for over twenty years is
armored fighting vehicle of BOV family, specialized for use
by military police units in various tactical missions of riot
control and anti-terrorist operations, designated BOV-3 or
VPB M-86. The vehicle was developed based on TAM 150
intended for wide range of potential customers, including
the Serbian Army.
Functional model of the vehicle was completed in 2008
and it is publicly presented for the first time in the pages of
this issue or REPORT. Code name of the vehicle is LAZAR,
evocating the memory of Prince Lazar who headed Serbian
armored cavalry and the entire Serbian army, heroically losing
his life in the Battle of Kosovo on St. Vids day in the year
1389.

In its concept and applied technical solutions, the vehicle
is particularly adapted for use by modern infantry units and
special forces engaged in missions within anti-terrorist and
peacekeeping operations, with emphasis on engagements in
urban conditions, settlements and on intersected terrains,
in environments involving ambushes, antitank mines and
improvised explosive devices set up by an adversary.
The concept of this vehicle practically represents an
advanced MRAP, featuring certain properties (mobility, terrain
negotiating capability and fire power) of MRAV class
combat vehicle, this combining main characteristics of both,
nowadays highly important classes of wheeled armored vehicles.
When designing the concept of the vehicle, special emphasis
was placed on achievement of high mobility, system of
armor protection, armament system, ability to transport 10
infantrymen who should be able to quickly embark or evacuate
the vehicle using tail gate.

High level of armor protection was achieved by adopting
of steel armor hull that, in its basic version, includes ballistic
glass panes and provides protection that meets STANAG
4569, level III+ (protection against 12.7x107 mm B-32 API
round fired from 100 m) at front and level II at the sides and
rear. By fitting add-on armor of laminated composite structure,
attached on basic armor, vehicle ballistic protection is
rated level V at front and level IV at all other sides. Armored
hull design allows quick fitting and replacement of add-on
armor sections by vehicle crew, which, when fitted, do not
degrade basic functions of the vehicle.
Optionally, fitting of reactive explosive armor attached to
add-on armor will provide effective protection against infantry
hand launchers of RPG-7 type which nowadays represent
main threat in already mentioned type of warfare.
Hull bottom is V-shaped that, in addition to high ground
clearance and solid drive train, ensures very high level of
protection from antitank mine and IED, according to level
IIIa (resistant against blasts of AT mine or IED containing
6kg of HE occurring under vehicle wheels and floor)
Vehicle armament system is situated in the area between
drivers and commanders compartment and area that
accommodates embarked troops. Concept of the vehicle
allows incorporation of a variety of turrets, cupolas and
weapon stations, depending on main application of the vehicle
and planned budget of the user.
Simplest armament consists of partially armored modular
cupola M06 with detachable mounts, able to support the
following weapon alternatives:
- machine gun cal. 7.62 x 54 mm M86 with electric trigger,
- machine gun cal.. 12.7 x 108 mm,
- automatic grenade launcher cal. 30 mm.
- cannon M55 (HS 804) cal. 20 x 110 mm
Existing functional model, as illustrated, mounts lightodbrambene
weight cupola LK08 armed with cannon cal. 20 x 110 mm
M55 (HS804), with belt feeding, and machine gun cal. 7.62
x 54 mm M86.
The concept permits installation of different weapon stations
equipped with optoelectronic fire control system and
an integrated weapons system that may consists of a combination
the following weapon alternatives:
Cannon cal. 20 mm M55
Cannon cal. 30 mm M86
Wire-guided AT missile system Malutka 2 with twin
launcher
Machine gun cal. 7.62 mm M86
Machine gun cal. 12. 7 mm M87
Automatic grenade launcher cal. 30 mm M93
Overall mass of cupola with weapon station is up to two tons,
diameter of its support bearing is up to 1600 mm. All versions
of the turret, cupola or weapon stations in addition to listed
weapon alternatives are equipped with 4 dispensers of smoke
charges.

Zasto ga ne testiraju na mine?

[despirit]

@SerbianCommandoSCGRS

zao sto postoji samo jedan prototip...

[SerbianCommandoSCGRS]

@despirit Pa kako onda znaju da je odporan?

[despirit]

@SerbianCommandoSCGRS

Ko kaze da znaju :)))))))

Para nema za izradu drugog prototipa, tj. cele nulte serije na kojoj bi se odradila sva testiranja... tako da, ako kazu da je otporan, onda je "otporan" da im verujemo na rec XD

[andjelko2ooo]

Extra je.Kakva kurac Patria i druga zapadnjacka sranja kad za manje pare imas odlican domaci oklopnjak.

[chashavko]

@blueone0011 slazem se! i divim im se i zao mi je sto ne ojacaju malo jer ovako amerika moze srati po cijelom svijetu, a za vrijeme komunizma su znali da rusi mogu poslat svoje oruzje i protuavionske rakete pa nebi bas tako efikasni bili. nego evo ti jedan dokumentarni film o povijesti rusije. nista novo al interesantno za pogledat... Engineering an Empire: Russia, Part 1 pozdrav!

@vitotiv Jbg. nisam hteo da ipadnem prost ali si umiksovao dnevnu politiku a to upste nije bila tema npr. "lopine kao ovi nasi" itd. ali si za dosta stvari u pravu.

Poenta je da treba braniti svoje po svaku cenu npr. kada su Rusi spalili Moskvu (zasto uzimam njih kao primer?... zato sto skoro da ne postoje slicini primeri u tome dokle ide njihova svest o potrebi za ocuvanjem sopstvene drzave) samo da neprijatelja demoralise!
