KIA K-151: Pakistan's New Light Armored Vehicle?

[Mrc]

So? Your Tejas was launched in 1983

1973

 

[MBT 3000]

must be mass produced to replace those dangerous trucks

 

[denel]

unbelievable... why dont you get mambas....

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

It has been 2yrs now since it was launched

Because producing IFVs and MRAVs ground up takes time.

While Hamza has taken 2 years.. compare that to indian programs...

unbelievable... why dont you get mambas....

Why dont you stop being a salesman.

 

[BATMAN]

That's it, PA should buy those in numbers.
Pakistan also could have ventured with Czech Tatra, they have one of the best chassis.

 

[Awan68]

unbelievable... why dont you get mambas....

We dont like the name.

 

[Zulfiqar]

Probably will be assembled using CKD kits with armour from HIT.

Info on vehicle

 

[denel]

We dont like the name.

it is the basis for nearly all vehicles ... paramount/armscor and tonnes of CKDs in UAE/Saudi/Kazak/azer..

Things evolve mate, just because something is the basis of a conceot doesnt mean everyone has to go for it. We developed what we needed for our army's needs. We make tanks, fighter jets n advanced cruise missles, i think we can handle infantry vehicles. What i would like Pakistan to collaborate on with south africa is air to air missles.

Sir its a Light Tactical Vehicle similar to High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMV) of USA not a MRAP therefore comparison of this with Mamba MRAP is not a right thing ....

 

[Irfan Baloch]

Get rid of those damn pickups.

actually they dare death traps

It has been 2yrs now since it was launched

dont worry it is still going to beat Tejas

Great. The speed is really great 130 km/hr for 7.0 tonne vehicle is impressive..that's higher than the motorway speed limit. I hope HIT can mass produce it for PA and other LEAs so we can get rid of Toyota trucks ..

sustained top speed is not viable due to fuel consumption. yes its good for short burst of speed when needed including all the benefits and advantages this platform brings.

Exactly a 230 hp engine driving a hulk of 7 tonnes will consume a lot of fuel and definitely this speed is mere attainable on levelled roads like motorways...otherwise all the crew would be missing pieces if full speed is tried on a rough field and even the tyres may burst after an hour ..I normally don't prefer a soldier without a nose or an ear
