Are the bulletproof glasses mounted inside, for the majority of foreigners outside, a special way for Russia? )))

[A.K.]

And what from this?

[Vladimir_2U]

What is what? Justify.

[A.K.]

And that that glass is mounted inside. What's the result?

[Vladimir_2U]

Decrease in internal volume in the area of ​​the head - shoulders.

[lucul]

Decrease in internal volume in the area of ​​the head - shoulders.

So what's the difference if from the side glass to the person it becomes 40 cm, and not 50 cm? )))))
He's wide)))

[Vladimir_2U]

Don't you confuse a cruise ship with a car? )))

[lucul]

Don't you confuse a cruise ship with a car?

And you don't confuse a military armored car with a Smart (Mercedes) car? )))
Only the Tiger has a width of more than 2 meters, not a length)))

[Vladimir_2U]

Well, how would it be, estimate how much width glass ate, no matter how 10% of internal BA width. Well, 40-50 cm to a person is a strong saying.

[lucul]

Well, how would it be, estimate how much width glass ate, no matter how 10% of the internal width of the BA

Have you seen the thickness of that glass? )))

Well, 40-50 cm to a person is a strong saying.

To the head, dear, to the head)))

[Vladimir_2U]

Well, look at this photo, what is the thickness here? And multiply it by two, and correlate to the inner width (185_190 cm).

To the head, dear, to the head

... Well, look at a photo of a man in a Tiger and you will understand that give BG 30 cm turns out to be a friend's ear)).

[lucul]

Look at civilian cars - the same Mercedes S 600, only 1800mm wide. And almost all cars have a roof obstruction to the head, and there is still enough space. And here there is no roof blockage inside, a straight box - you have sucked the problem out of your finger.

[Vladimir_2U]

Quote: lucul

you sucked the problem out of the blue

Okay, there are no problems on the shoulders (although they are), evaluate the first photo, on the seats for passengers, that's not even 20, even 15 cm are not superfluous here.

Don't be ridiculous, here's a video for you, watch from 0.57 seconds.

[Vladimir_2U]

Hehe, but this is funny, in the video some bulletproof glasses protrude from the body, but in the photo in the article they are not.

[lucul]

but not in the photo in the article

Experiments, the model has not yet been adopted for service.

Oh, how, our designers are generally in trend, they didn't even take out the bulletproof glass, they didn't heat the doors in the case. I'm sorry, I didn't see it, our designers were on the crest of the wave. ))) But on the "Tiger" no.

[A.K.]

Well, in my opinion, here the whole double-glazed window is in the inner volume of the door itself and nothing happens with the volume, the place from this has not become less.

[Vladimir_2U]

What kind of BA? Give the appearance of this apparatus.

so already in my opinion everything is clear. The question has been settled.

[Vladimir_2U]

Absolutely.

===========
Yes, you will finally settle down with your glasses! Americans on MRAP-ah screw on the outside, others - from within:

BRM Renault SEDEMS VBL:

"Fennek", Germany:

Cobra II, Turkey:

Alvis "Scarab" UK:

Have you calmed down? And then it began: "Russia has its own way" .... "everything is not like that of people" .....

[venik]

Quote: A.K.

And what from this?

=========
Well, then you need to "buzz". And the glasses "on the wrong side" are screwed on, and the wheels are "screwed on with the wrong" nuts, and in general - "grenades of the wrong system" .......

[loki565]

Yes, everything is fine there with glass, do not consider the designers more stupid than yourself))),

[Vitaly Pogrebnyak]

And I will find fault with the seats, what kind of unique ones I made them to the floor. Nobody cares about the soldiers.

[Thrifty]

After the Athlete, the Swimmer will appear, then the Girevik, then the Heavy Truck. ... not tired of breeding herds of armored cars? So, with the logistics, the devil will break his leg, and then there are new items in herds on the way! !!

[carstorm 11]

He's coming to replace Tiger. The time has come. He did his job, but the defense is frankly weak for the current realities. And so there are a lot of them in MO. Two typhoon platforms. The tiger and those lynxes that they managed to drag. With armor, nothing else in my opinion and there are no cars. The Airborne Forces asks for their requirements. But this has always been the case.

[Old tanker]

The tiger, with its low mine resistance, has long been in need of replacement. This is the proactive development of GAZ from the very beginning of the XNUMXs, and it is rooted in a development that is joint with the Arabs. There he was named "Nimr".
And only then it was recognized by our Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

[aszzz888]

cars "Tiger". They will have stronger mine protection and will be able to withstand an explosion with a force of two kilograms of TNT under the bottom .... In addition to mine protection "Tigru" will increase ballistic resistance to class 6a according to GOST. A

Well, you can compare, though the article does not write specifically about the numbers at the "Athlete"

Mine protection is significantly higher than that of the "Tiger".

».

[Dkuznecov]

The study does not contain a comparison table
TTX of both cars,
and analysis of the reasons for the release of "Athlete".
Why, for example, was not considered
modernization of the existing "Tiger",
to whom they sang hosanna.

[yfast]

You need the only good car for transporting l / s, and not a bunch of nedo. The rest are civilians.

[faiver]

give each branch of the military a separate model of an armored car

[Megatron]

Who cares, in my personal armored car, it's done like this.

Class B7 / B7.
