IDEAS 2016 Preview: Blitzkrieg Solution MRAP to be unveiled on IDEAS 2016

[Zarvan]

Just Wow

I know it sounds stupid but if a private company can come up with this beauty in only nine months than expect what we can do in upcoming months.

This was developed in past 9 months so there is more work to do on it but even 9 months work has give excellent result and would get much better.

Whats it Specs ?

Engine and chassis are local too?If impressive.

first you design a product without much investing in the menufactruring each and everything, If design is successful then you go invest in local production of what is financially beneficial...its business first

Not really an MRAP.. Rather MRAV.

 

[Hallian_Khan]

how useful it is against IED?

 

[xyxmt]

The name of the company is very unfortunate. Don't except orders from Europe and especially Western Europe. They should use a more neutral name.

Sir will you please enlighten us what it really lacks...how its lack luster APC...what dimensions are missing....what are the core design modules which are neglected.....what are fundamental princples on which an APC which has to resist ambush..mines etc are built......
Thanx......extremely ignorant questions....

Can I go to IDEAS as a civilian?

Great looking design but I think the body should be raised, the wheel arches and the wheels should also be much bigger.

sort of like this:

I think it would work great over environments with infrastructure such as towns, villages, and cities, but I'm not sure if this vehicle would fair well in the field over rougher terrain.

This is certainly not manufactured at HIT. The metal work is extremely neat and inside are European specification seats and equipment etc. My feeling is that this may be a prototype developed by some Western company that was lying rejected somewhere. Blitz Krieg Defense Solutions (who is primarily NOT a manufacturer and only makes bullet proof jackets etc) may have purchased this unit for display at IDEAS through the aegis of HIT being its manufacturing partner should the Army approves this model after trials. However first impressions are that its too big and bulk for operation use in and around Pakistani terrains and essentially narrow PAGGDANDDEES on which our vehicles have to move and maneuver. Secondly, its also not likely to withstand an IED explosion because of its very high side and under carriage profile.

Someone in the private sector has spent a lot of money to have this imported into Pakistan. I sure hope they get their moneys worth

Sir this is made by Pakistani company but a private one and it's made in last 9 months. If Army likes it HIT can get involved and improve it and turn it into a beast

I have my doubts that this is made in Pakistan. I know HIT and their abilities very well. This is certainly not made at HIT. So the question arises, where exactly has this been made? Who are the previous users of this vehicle? How many units have been sold so far? If its an exclusive prototype for Army then why is it different from previous MRAP's? HIT had developed a similar model in the past years based on the Israeli CAT MCV that was rejected by the Army.

Finally you simply cannot make such a vehicle in just 9 months from scratch!!!! Even the most mature Armoured Vehicle manufacturing companies take years to design and eventually come up with initial prototypes etc.
