Your nation's light transport vehicles

Postby Slovitrea » Mon Jul 11, 2011 4:35 pm

The SDF uses the Otokar Cobra truck, equipped with either PKT heavy machine guns or KORN guided missiles.

Development of the VUSK (Vehicle Urban Survival Kit), a modification system for the Cobra, is underway, to enhance protection against grenades, land mines, and RPGs.

We use BMP-2's:
Image
A few BMP-1's
Image
have only a handful of BMP-3's
Image
And most of our transport vehicles are in fact BTR-80's
Image
Barracks trucks are Ural 4320's
Image
And that will about cover it.

I don't think those qualify as light. Humvees are light transport vehicles, Bradleys and Strykers are not.

We employ a Tankette, the Wiesel Armoured Weapons Carrier:

Image

It can be fitted with multiple weapon systems, here we see the 20mm-variant. Other variants include Air-Defense launchers, AT-rockets, enhanced radar and thermooptical sywstems in the recon-variant, a computer-controlled 120mm mortar, mobile command center including enhanced com-systems, ambulance-settings, ammunition- and troop-carrier-capabilities.

Image
Troop-carrier/ambulance variant. We opted for the tracked solution because it offers increased mobility on rough terrain.

Image
multicarrier-variant. Note enlarged chassis.

Image
Recon-Variant. Note lowered profile.

Cars, generally.

Oh, you mean for transporting military personnel

Armored cars and APCs, generally.
If you need lineart done, specifically edged weapons, bludgeons or firearms, and you need them done in a slightly stylized low-pixel way, and you need them done in under a goddamn hour, I'm your guy.

OOC:I've been in AN MRAP they are anything but light.

We use a modified GMC Sierra that has a turret in the top of the cab. It has 3/4 inch steel plates in the doors only, It only seats four fully armed soldiers in the cab, but another 5 can fit in the back end. So it's exactly big enough for a squad.
Oh, is this sig supposed to make you laugh?

The YellowApple Light Recon Rover Version 3 is based on the Hummer HX concept design, reverse-engineered from produced Hummer models and modified to accept both liquid and slush forms of hydrogen fuel. The LRRv3 is modular in nature and able to be rapidly and easily assembled or modified; additional weapons systems and body extensions are commonplace.


Image
Image

The YellowApple Modular Utility Truck was reverse-engineered from the F line of Ford trucks (specifically, the F150 and F650 models), and are designed to be easily expandable and adaptable to a wide variety of tactical scenarios, from troop transportation to anti-infantry work to rescue and salvage duties. Like the Light Recon Rover, the YA-MUT is powered by hydrogen combustion using liquid or slush hydrogen. Even though the trucks built under this design scheme can vary widely in size (as indicated in the above images), they are assembled from similar (or in some cases identical) parts.
