Production of Improved Version of Dragoon Armoured Fighting Vehicle started at HIT Taxila

[Sine Nomine]

And any news about Taxtron commando and Chinese IFV when they will be produced ?

Dragoon is better then and equal to Textron commando and Chinese IFV is i think ZBD-97 or improved ZBD-04 once we master full technology of Dragoon you will see a new and more capable version by HIT.Also recent technologies and R&D will soon bring another IFV based on Talah APC.

Here's some more source for you guys: HIT planning to produce General Dynamics’ Dragoon AFV and VN1

These things will really benefit PA. We need well armored troop transports which can also support infantry in combat.

Operative word is planning. I will believe it when production starts.

Try HIT's official site n new brochures ... It's listed as a JV product... Meaning it's already under production ...

Still not operational?

Look at these unrealistic specs

Performance:
Fuel Tank Capacity: 40 liters?
Cruising Range: 850 km

That makes 5 Litters per 100KM for few tons of iron carrying 11 passengers. These specs are not correct.

It is 400 liters not 40 sir!

Why??? You need to re-train your people with tactics to deal with this next time they target a public place?

I am surprised .. lessons are learned from IEDs/mines still?
RG-32/Nyala/Mamba are far better choices - tried and tested. highly configurable and can run toyota engines as well.

Even the srilankas acknowledged our vehicles in their campaigns - Buffel which is early 80s model and no longer in service on our side yet they have continued to field it and work upon it.

I have a question for senior members, tanks and similar vehicles can get as heavy as lorries, but they seem to have 5 gears like a normal car instead of hi-lo double gearbox?

PD should invest on Strykers.
