Ре: ЛР Снатч...
Приветствую
>Насколько я понимаю да и по картинкам сужу - в Белфасте в основном "Шорлэнды" использовали, которые там же Шортс Бразерс и мастерили. А "Снэтч" - это именно легкобронированный вариант общего назначения.
Возможно, но я пою что вижу.
>Following a competition, NP Aerospace were awarded a contract to supply the British Army with about 1,000 light protected vehicles based on a Land Rover Defender (4x4) chassis for use in Northern Ireland.
>These are commonly known as 'Snatch' vehicles and have also been deployed to the Balkans and more recently Iraq. For operations in the latter country many vehicles have been upgraded to the 'Snatch - Chile' standard which includes an air conditioning system and a special thermal cover to the top.
>This vehicle is known commercially as the CAV 100 (Composite Armoured Vehicle) with the current model being based on the 3.5 tonne gross vehicle weight Land Rover Defender chassis. According to the company over 1,300 CAV 100 have been built for 20 users worldwide. Other chassis are also available.

>100 кг - боюсь, что ничего. Включая танк.
А как раз во столько оценивают силу взрыва.
>Это, конечно, возможно. Но сказанного мной выше не отменяет.
О использовании по назначению - кто бы спорил.
>The disclosure comes in a week that the MoD announced that it was spending £700 million on acquiring 700 new armoured vehicles for operations in Afghanistan - acknowledging the dangers faced by troops as they travelled round the country.
>However, Defence Secretary John Hutton refused to withdraw the Snatch Land Rover saying that it was regarded as "mission critical" to the operation.
>Instead he promised that the Snatch Land Rover would be upgraded into a new, more powerful variant, called the Snatch Vixen, which was able to carry better protection.

Министр обороны отказался согласиться с требованием снятия с вооружения бронированных Лендроверов, заявив, что вместо этого они получат усиленную защиту.
