Wish somebody could post pics of other (new) vehicles by HIT like Protector etc.

@DESERT FIGHTER

Have you heard any rumors about something big big going down?

New Muhafiz?

New muhafiz (didn't you see news.. The vehicle in which dr Asim was being taken to court by cops) and another armoured vehicle called protector..which was revealed at IDEAS.

Is that even possible ?

Although I saw a glimpse of an unidentified vehicle undergoing production in one of the HIT videos couple of months back..(can't seem to find the video now).

not in literal terms. Commonality with M113.

Pata nahi such bhi hai ya nahi. If it is, I am not supposed to know.

Wesi hints tou mai nai dain din hain. Shouldn't be too hard to guess.

Our dear member @Ulla posted these pictures in the morning. Thank you, Sir.

Armed with a automatic grenade launcher plus a 12.7 mm MG RCWS, this will be an excellent replacement for those death traps Toyota trucks.

This vehicles are useless without armed turret, it seems like that HIT has never understood that, all our M-113 were produce without a gun shield or turret.


One more example:

I think they have started to put shields in the field now

@Ulla you remind me of a member by name of "al khalid" on the other defence forum of Pakistan

A selam, yes thats me how you know that ? ^^ (the forum ******************** is now dead ! )

I was the first one who posted in 2009 that Pakistan Army needs the M-24 Hinds, better Infantry equipment such as a red dot light for the Type-56 Rifles etc. to counter and survive in the mountain battle against TTP.

The other forum is now dead, what was you name there ? (by the way I am also member in pakdef.com from Usmans forum there I have also the name Ulla.

This is the kind of RCWS I had in mind for Dragoon.

That looks good, but check also this solution (which is cheaper and easier to maintain and handle).

The M1117 Guardian Armored Security Vehicle

Main
armament
40 mm Mk 19 grenade launcher, .50 caliber M2HB
Secondary
armament
M240H Medium Machine Gun

That is terminator mechanized.

I wish we had these in good numbers atleast 4-5 years ago then it would have helped alot, saying that their need is still great. if we can put a large caliber gun on it and make it like AMX-10RC then we are talking!

 

[thrilainmanila]

Ulla did you get to see the upgrades version of al-khalid? and did you speak to the guy at him and ask why there hasn't been any real projects visa ve IFVs

 

[MilSpec]

The Dragoon is going to be a must buy for ME countries, first customer will probably be SA or Iraq.

You do realise that this is a American AFV made by GDLD since the 80's and in service with seven other countries before Pakistan got it? Forget first customer, you are the eight customer of this vehicle.

 

[Quwa]

This is a good LEA vehicle. Heck, it is a good vehicle for our paramilitary and base perimeter security guys too, but the actual Army needs larger AFVs. Haris Khan told DefenseNews in December 2014 (last year) that Pakistan was in talks with China to produce the VN1 AFV, I hope that comes to fruition.

Thats not me in the pictures, to your questions: Ia lack of funds is why HIT has never produced a true APC, the upgraded Version Al_KHalid 1 has been posted many times in the past in this forum, you can even goolge it.
