Al-Qaswa Logistic Vehicle
APC M113P
is a proven vehicle whose derivatives can be as useful as the vehicle
itself. Logistic vehicle with a stretched hull is one such derivative which
would significantly enhance logistic compatibility with operational
echelons. The logistic vehicle designed and manufactured at HIT is
characterized by unique features. It is light weight with armour protection
for crew and resembles a flat bed truck in both appearance and application.
It uses the M113P power plant, track and suspension to ensure commonality.
The Logistic Vehicle can be used for carrying of POL, rations, ammunition
and supplies across all types of cross-country terrain. The cargo
compartment which can carry a load of 6 tons can be protected with a
tarpaulin cover. The vehicle platform can also be used for other adaptations
such as weapon station, missile launcher, radar, TCV, ambulance, maintenance
vehicle etc.
