BW Mod: Dingo

details was originally posted on BI forums: [quote]The Dingo 1 (ATF2) is designed to provide better protection against mines for personnel participating in peacekeeping operations than offered by conventional light wheeled vehicles, but at the same time to be faster and more mobile than heavy armor. Mounted on the commercial chassis of the Unimog U1550L (rather than the light U100L, which was used for early experimental vehicles designated ATF1 but found unsuitable, considering the vehicle weight),the Dingo 1 offers good cross country performance. The vehicle is fitted with an armored cage protecting the passengers, engine compartment, fuel tank and cargo bay. The modular, repairable armor provides all-round protection against infantry weapons, as well as artillery fragments up to 155 mm. In addition, the Dingo 1 is fitted with an oblique "blast deflector" floor, providing crew protection against heavy anti-tank, EFP and anti-personnel mines. It is designed to travel at speeds of up to 100 km/h, has a range of 1000 km, is air transportable by C-130 and C-160 aircraft and can be airlifted by CH-47/CH-53 helicopters. The vehicle armament consists of a remotely operated weapons station, which can mount either a machine gun up to 12.7x99 or an automatic grenade launcher.[/quote]
This is one of the standard vehicles the German army, also known as Bundeswehr, use for operations in desert and dry areas. Definatly worth to take a look at. :) This description with technical
