@nickkomanz you should see the old WMIKs
-
@fvo911 its safe against alot of ieds and if your a taliban you wouldnt wont to fire at it because it as 12.7 mm heavy machine gun, 7.62 mm general purpose machine gun and 40 mm automatic grenade launcher and really its only the top gunner wots open the rest only there head is open but thay need that to see
-
it's one of the best viechals for offroad but, it has too low armor protection , so it can't keep safe the crew inside...
-
How many poligons does mode have?
-
@williamED15 so if you do a little digging you will see that atleast 25 men have been killed in them and probably atleast twice as many injured .this is why thew uk was forced to buy the ocelot .the american developed the matv which is great offroad and has a full vhull .for more info on the jackal go to defence of the realm dot com .its a great site that has lots of info on british kit
-
@williamED15 lol listen it has no vhull ,do a little research first .it has a flat bottom with some belly armour added .the sid plate on the front makes it look like vhull but it unfortunatly is not ..its primary purpose as you say is for off road ,the thoery being you can drive around ieds etc .thge problkem they have found is two fold .10 in many places in afghanistan the (road ) or track is the only way in .2 the snatch vehicles were all withdrawn and jackal were used for convoy protection.
-
@marks95911 it is V shaped hull and its not meant for road driving its primary purpose is to go to terrain where no one can and since ieds are primaryly placed on roads(which the jackal doesnt drive on) the vehicles are revatily safe
-
@illegalimmigrantpl lol no your comment just doesnt make sense .the jackal has no vhull only a skid plate that people think is a vhull .it is a recon vehicle ! but why would you send a recon vehicle with no vhull into a place full of ieds .the only ied protection it has is blast seats ,which are a joke
-
@marks95911 The new american trucks in service are very good, they use whats called a 'V-hull' the bottom of the vehicle is designed to funnel the blast away from the main vehicle rather than having a flat bottom. But your obviously too ignorant and stubborn to understand this because you clearly didn't read my comment:
Designed for reconnaissance and IED protection. NOT FOR CLOSE RANGE
