The military department of Great Britain ordered the Scout Specialist Vehicle armored vehicles for (in terms of) $ 589 billion from General Dynamics 5,8 armored vehicles, reports Lenta.ru report with reference to the publication "Jane's".

A press release from the British Defense Ministry states that "the supply of the BBM will begin on 2017 and end in 2024, with the first battalion of" Scout SV "being formed in the middle of 2019, and the first division will be ready by the end of 2020 of the year." The new BBMs will replace the CVR (T) armored vehicles adopted in the 70s of the last century.

According to the press service, the British army “Scout SV” will be received “in two main modifications: the first (244 vehicle) will be armed with the CTN 40-mm automatic telescopic gun manufactured by Lockheed Martin, and the second, PMRS (Protected Mobility Reconnaissance Support, PMRS), will be equipped with the "Protector" instrument from the "Kongsberg" company ”.

The press release states that the BBM, armed with a cannon, "are designed for a crew of three and will be presented in three versions: 198 reconnaissance-strike vehicles, 23 fire control vehicles and 24 reconnaissance vehicles equipped with a portable radar station."

The PMRS version is designed for crews from 2-s to 4-s. "59 of such vehicles will be presented in the armored personnel carrier version, 112 will be used as command vehicles, 34 - as auxiliary reconnaissance vehicles, and 51 - as engineering reconnaissance," the press service said. In addition, the military will receive tractors developed on the basis of PMRS.

The scope of the contract also includes technical support and training of military personnel.

It is reported that the "Scout SV" armored vehicle was developed on the basis of the universal tracked chassis ASCOD and, depending on the modification, weighs from 38 to 42 tons. " In service of the Austrian army is 112 machines ASCOD "Ulan", and in the army of Spain - 356 ASCOD "Pizarro".

This is great news!
The Anglo-Saxons NEVER knew how to make SLEEPING armored vehicles, but SUPER-EXPENSIVE - regularly !!! Have you bought some shit for crazy money? Very well! Let them try it somewhere else in Iraq: "Abrams" and "Challengers" have already burned out there !!!
PS At the same time: "Latvia buys 123 units of second-hand tracked armored vehicles from Britain ..." N-yes-ah ... This is the cycle of second-hand metal in NATO ...

Anglo-Saxons NEVER knew how to make sensible armored vehicles,

Why so? They had a very challenging Challenger, although he was somewhat tall.

[Zymran]

Not only Challenger, but also, for example, Centurion. An excellent tank, and the Israeli modernization is "Imba" at all, as virtual tankers say.

[enot73]

Quote: Zymran

Not only Challenger, but also, for example, Centurion. Great tank

But his opponent was also very worthy, Early T - 54

[Zymran]

T-54 is probably a good tank, but I don’t remember a single conflict, wherever he showed himself. That T-62 in the Iran-Iraq war showed himself against the English Chieftains very well.

[enot73]

Quote: Zymran

T-54 is probably a good tank, but I don’t remember a single conflict, wherever he showed himself.

Yes, the early modifications really didn’t get anywhere, just these tanks appeared at about the same time as the Centurions. But the later T - 54/55 are not bad at fighting around the world until now. And they continue to be unrecognizably modernized, for example, like this Slovenian T - 55

[Lopatov]

The only tank that was hit in Iraq forehead from an RPG. See the extra armor plate reservation? Work on the bugs. The British sometimes lack attention to detail.

[voyaka uh]

It is curious that Israel, where the tankers were very fond of Centurion -
prayed at him - I almost bought the following model from Britain by inertia:
Chieftain. Which was already so-so. But England banned the sale - some
temporary embargo, quarreled ... And the Merkava project got an advantage! And so would
had to suffer with the upgrades of the british

The control was carried out using a front wheel mounted in a motorcycle-type fork. However, the car could make a turn with a small radius with the help of tracks, which allowed the differential mounted on the SdKfz 2.

[code54]

Thanks, thanks. And then always looking at the photo of this vehicle it was not really believed that the wheel would pull towards the tracks! )))

Well, I don’t know, in my opinion, the fashion for light tanks passed back in the 40s of the last century, so it’s not clear that neither the tank nor the BMP

[Lopatov]

The British always had such cars. It seems that these are some of their tricks in tactics.

[mch1950]

This is for wars against arrows and bows, they are not warriors, punishers.

[Lopatov]

That’s enough for you ... They have traditionally the highest level of infantry training, for the same Americans and others before them, as before Beijing on four wheels.

For example, in Iraq they took a sad first place in casualties from friendly fire. What does it mean? The fact that more often than others were in direct contact with the enemy, and did not beat him remotely, as Americans love.

[voyaka uh]

Right The British are fighting a little in the old way. Ahead infantry on foot, in groups,
50 meters behind it are tanks. So we were taught - because the first IDF instructors were
the British.
And they do not like breakouts, environments. Gradual extrusion, frontal pressure.
They showed the assault on Basra, with small 50 mm mortars, in a hurry on TV.

[Mooh]

This is not a light tank, this is some kind of misunderstanding: a narrow goselka, 40 tons and a small cannon.

[Vorlon]

In the 95th I felt in armor. A couple of bullets got our generator. I tried to think about the borders. Lucky.

[Fast]

I don’t think that the Englishmen went nuts, on the contrary, the choice of weapons to the very point. These wedges are clearly made to clean up stunned partisans after the bombing, it is more convenient to shoot from a height. Surely NATO is preparing for war with the IS.

[portoc65]

Natto needed an enemy so that he wouldn’t fall apart .. now everything .. will start arming to the fullest ... now we must defend ourselves from Russia.

Yes, nothing typewriter. Compared to previous BRM models, the frontal projection armor is reinforced by more than 15%. New thermal imagers allow you to determine the location of the enemy’s armored vehicles, even if it is in the fuel economy mode. The engine’s resource is also increased, the BRM will be able to operate in difficult terrain. The Swedes are interested in it. Negotiations are ongoing.

By weight, this is a "terminator". In terms of combat characteristics - nothing at all next to him. Ours are still ahead of Western military thought by a generation.

[Massik]

Judging by the weight, she has almost tank armor, and any weapons can be hung. Moreover, there are a lot of specializations, and our BMP does not want to transform into either an armored personnel carrier, or even more so an armored personnel carrier. Although the chassis t 72 probably you can do this ...
The desired Armata in 2015 will only be presented until the state tests, until the launch of the series ....

First, it will be necessary to break the entire "attached" euro buffer together with the Yusovsky contingent, the USSR would have done it - I'm not sure about us, there are stupidly several times more of them. Now, if China takes our side ...

British analysts issued a statement: Attacking Great Britain Russia will be on foot. Purchasing this crap is advisable!

[Roman 1977]

Look at the fellows, the Austrians and the Spaniards, not only developed a machine for their armies, but also managed to foist it on the little shaves. ASCOD BMPs were developed by the Austrian Steyr-Daimler-Pooh and the same diversified Spanish company, Santa Barbara. Moreover, the tower was an Austrian-developed SP-30, armed with a two-plane 30-mm Mauser automatic cannon MK 30-2, and the chassis was Spanish.

In addition to the BMP, the ASCOD family includes: light tank LT105, chassis for air defense systems (AAMC) and ZSU (AAGS), ATGMC SPTRK, 81-mm or 120-mm self-propelled mortar AMC120, BREM (ARRV), BRM (ALC), control and communication machine (ACCC), mobile ANP (AAOP) and ambulance (AAMB).

http://www.army-guide.com/rus/product111.html

It can be seen after the failure with its first and last BMP "Warrior", mainly associated with a complex of weapons, which include: lack of stabilization of the 30-mm L21A1 Rarden cannon; the absence of a 30-mm cartridge with a feathered projectile in the ammunition load of the cannon and, accordingly, the inability to hit the armor protection of promising armored targets; the inability to suppress the dismounted tank-hazardous manpower with 30-mm cannon fire, the small-britters decided to finally abandon the development of armored vehicles.

[badger1974]

yes, in the course of the panzer faust-3 gave disappointing results for the armor clutter here, and in the former USSR, the "sevens" are like cockroaches in the bath, I understand that the Germans are not stupid, while rowing with their heels in tow, the stars-striped ones are rowing, and Tommy wants to get the trochs in full knows him. maybe they want australia ...? our tourists are already on the way more than rabbits

[tokens2]

Yes ... Belarus doesn’t advertise its BRDM Stalker badly. You can’t see the Stalker in Novorossia. It’s clear that the equipment is expensive. But it’s a pity. The name Stalker in Ukraine is now in the subject.

[33 Watcher]

Yes, 38-42 tons. This is a tank, this is a heavy self-propelled howitzer, but no matter how the armored vehicle with the described purpose, with which, by the way, not everything is clear either ... I would like more versatility from the modern car. Judging by the contours of the reservation is so-so, mediocre, where does this weight come from? And what about the energy ratio? With the Austrian army, everything is clear for a long time, it is ceremonial, expensive and stupid. And the British there too.

[Cherdak]

It is enough to know that the "promising machine" Scout SV is a BMP ASCOD (Austrian Spanish Cooperative Development), developed in accordance with the British requirements, created by Steyr-Daimler-Puch (Austria) and Santa Bárbara Sistemas ( Spain). The British army wants to get a heavy infantry fighting vehicle, light tank, anti-aircraft complex, repair and recovery vehicle, command, sanitary and other types of equipment on a single tracked chassis.

And besides, is there something like a car?


According to the press service, the British Army "Scout SV" will arrive "in two main modifications: the first (244 vehicles) will be armed with a 40 mm automatic telescopic CTAS cannon manufactured by Lockheed Martin, and the second, PMRS (Protected Mobility Reconnaissance Support, PMRS), will be equipped with the "Protector" remote control system from "Kongsberg" company. ”(Quote)

Yes, no one disputes the "professionalism of professionals" (in quotes because there is a pun of some kind), it is just that all this is knocked out of the general concept of the development of BTT, which was also created at no small cost, I must say. Or the British decided to challenge the physics: the higher the tower, the further you can see, it is easier to aim at it, the more weight, the lower the maneuverability, etc.
