German landing party will receive upgraded Wiesel-1 wedges

German airborne wedges, Wiesel-1, will extend their service life to approximately 2030 years. According to the press service of the German Ministry of Defense, the budget committee of the German Bundestag approved on Wednesday several military projects with a volume of about 560 million euros, among which 73 million euros were allocated to extend the life of these machines.

In total, according to published data, 196 tankettes of the Wiesel-1 (Laska-1) version will undergo repair and modernization. The German Ministry of Defense website does not explain what kind of modernization should be subjected Tanks, it is only indicated that the upgraded vehicles will be used as reconnaissance vehicles and as vehicles of the German Airborne Troops and should last until at least 2030.

The main combat vehicle of the German landing force "Wiesel" has been produced since the late 80 of the last century in two versions - "Wiesel-1" and "Wiesel-2". Wedges of the first modification were initially produced in two types: with an 20-mm automatic gun and with an anti-tank gun TOU. They are aero-transportable, it is possible to parachute PM using a parachute method (on the 4-ton modular parachute platform), however, preference was given to landing landing from airplanes during a landing operation or by helicopter during a tactical landing. Also on this base was created a self-propelled ground-based radar RATAC-SHa and several more prototypes that did not go into series. Total released from 1989 to 1992 year 345 machines of the first modification.

"Wiesel-2" - a platform sole with the extended base (on one skating rink). Based on this modification, an ammunition transporter, a self-propelled mortar, an ambulance, a command post vehicle, etc. were produced. In total, 178 copies of Wiesel-2 were released.

Those who wish to get acquainted with this wedge heel closer, you can follow the link and read the material of the "Military Review": The combat landing vehicle "Wiesel" and "Wiesel-2" (Wiesel)

A pretty wedge. He’ll even fit into a not too large plane. And you can carry it by helicopter on the external sling. Less than 3t weight

Belgium and the Netherlands are generally a super example of military skill, of course. Resistance. And advanced military technology.

[16329]

Fort Eben Enamel visited, in principle, the main reason for his rapid fall was not so much the German landing forces and engineering units as the lack of desire to protect him from the side of the Belgian garrison and the field cover units attached to it, which simply ran away and went home after the German air attack

[iConst]

Quote: Saboteur Holuay

Oga Belgium and the Netherlands with their super fortifications were captured at a time ..

You are about the First or Second. It doesn’t matter - there were no special fortifications. There were fortresses Liège and Namur. The forts were quickly destroyed by siege artillery and the troops retreated.
By the second campaign, only the French had a serious system of fortified areas - the Maginot line, but the Germans, like the first time, hit bypassing through Belgium.

Traditions are important. Especially the island of Crete. Cherry on ... the grave of the German Airborne Forces in WWII. The main thing is not to forget.

The Germans and army transport barely breathe. Even the Chancellor’s plane and the Foreign Minister are constantly failing. And army equipment was generally brought to a pen.

[Saboteur Holuy]

In the MTR of Germany, everything is fine with aviation transport ... The German Federal Republic differs from Russia in that there, soldiers from the MTR are flying on new planes, and Merkel on the old ones ... and in Russia, the MTR is trained to crumble, and the new Generals fly to meetings .. .po TV about three years talking about it ...

Compare ...
Only 12 combat companies are much easier to train than in fact 24 battalions (if you add 101 divisions, the Germans do not have a division into airborne and airborne assault)

73 million euros have been allocated to extend the life of these machines.

hey saboteur and where did you share the british sas they are still in preparation no worse than the extolled delta

[Saboteur Holuy]

Over the past 30 years, the Delta has added a lot, it’s not special forces anymore, it’s a long time ago - a detachment of strategic intelligence agents, where you will not find an operative under the age of 40 ...
CAC? It is difficult to say anything about them, but they did not follow the Delta path ... Delta is the only one in the world, there is only a similar division in the USA as part of Seals ...

[Leopold]

Ivan And on this ... um ... wedge heels they won’t let you on the asphalt. Only on chipyzhi and gullies will you make your way. And this is excess fuel. One and a half buckets NIVA eats just 12 liters per hundred. Rides wherever you want. And the interior is more spacious. This only garden to plow, but in winter to clear the snow.

[Reserve buildbat]

A bucket is 12,33 liters. Something like this, my crocodile ate))) And on this wedge heel there is rubber gusli, so they will be allowed on the asphalt))) And by weight it is included in category "B"

[Leopold]

Well, you still take a 20 liter bucket from under the paint. Then enough for Gelik. And don’t forget to open the harp for the winter, otherwise it will be slippery on the rubber.

[Reserve buildbat]

Learn Russian measures))) All these buckets, quarters, shtofs ... Do not forget the barrels forties)))
And I never met 20l from under the paint. Here is 20kg - often

[Leopold]

Do I not know, I have NIWA. Wan, well, I can’t bite in such quantities - a quarter, only with friends. My "Goluba" eats - but it works. But, you wanted that Oku. Where on it? Eared constipation - and even more "rogue"
P.S. Do you know where Partizan and Izya have gone? Without them, melancholy.

[Reserve buildbat]

Izya isn’t in the know at all. Partizan simply cursed and left. And Oka is a good crook. Especially with an elevator kit, which are sold as many as you want)))
And eating drops and repair is cheap. Although here I looked, the guys alone all over Eurasia on the march (Nissan who) was looking, with an elevator depending on the roads in front of 3-4,5cm, behind 3-6cm and everything is fine too. I’ll think, choose))) Anyway, the rights to the mot do not shine for me with probability 99%

[Leopold]

Che I didn’t understand three quarters. You do not refuel there? What is Nissan? And what does it mean - rights to a motorcycle?

[Reserve buildbat]

I will not be given rights to a motorcycle along the way))) I have nothing to refuel since I bought nothing))) I’ve got money to another steppe))) So I think: Oka (5-6l consumption per hundred) or Nissan March ( 10-12l consumption per hundred)
For nefig collect all sorts of strokes Last spring, the second slammed me. Now I can’t ride a bike. I'm falling. So they won’t give rights to the motik)))
By the way, Partizan can be called after all)))

[Leopold]

Four wheels - they won’t let you fall. Equalize Nissan to the Niva in terms of consumption, spare parts for the second are cheaper. I’m not so familiar with Partizan so that by telephone ...

[Reserve buildbat]

So I choose 4 wheels))) Nissan is more reliable, Oka is passable)) And I can call Partizan myself))) We just need to get ready to compose)))

[Leopold]

I hope you don’t miss the choice. Just don’t take this wedge. Partisan my respect when you talk. He is needed on the site, otherwise everyone got divorced. Buy a car - that's the reason to call.

[Reserve buildbat]

Agreed)))
