Yeah but that ones ugly.
We should make cool one.
Atleast it will be better than that horrible copy attempt by HIT

Yea Unimog has already been turned into a MRAP by South Africa over 4 decades ago called Buffel

bloody hell you want a sexy blonde or a vehicle that save's lives. @denel can vouch these vehicles saved lives and continue to save lives in Sri Lanka presently.

anyway the existing Truck chassis hasn't been turned into an MRAP yet, let alone spending money acquiring production for Unimog and then making an MRAP just go to South Africa fullstop.

We like the easy way out in most cases, buying off the shelf. It has its advantages

This is the problem with this forum; they are looking for ferrari elegance and no purpose. mine proof vehicles have a primary mission which is to save lives not win beauty contents.

Take a buffel - refering to prior member who made the silly comments; it looks ugly and yet; i will take that vehicle anywhere; easy to maintain, super long range operations across very very harsh terrain. You need to have mindset that an entire unit of vehicles can work independently far from logistic lines.

Ok Im Sorry

But all I am saying is if some villager in KPK for example can make his own helicopter. Then we can do a better job than everyone out there if we set our minds to it.
So we have the requisite skill to make something even more badass than the Foxhound or the JLTV

It's about critical mass or ROI when one gets into a project. For helos, there is no civilian market of note in Pakistan. On the military side, how often does the military replace it's helos. Buying at this point in time is in the long run more cost effective. JFT was a force majure for us due to sanctions. I don't think Pakistan will start another local project as the Russian market opens up and the Chinese product matures in comparison to western products.

Indeed.... this was first gen! - 1978!. people still survived it despite what you see; how you may ask. FIrstly back top was never covered; no concussions, next was seats - a specific lumbar design was in plus belts - that was the core failure of many ifvs to this day to realise that major injuries are spinal.
You are speaking to one who has survived 2.
Mamba is what you need to compare against which is from 1992 onwards and seen everywhere with UN/Marines/etc.

Hamza 8x8 is no more (and therefore impossible that it is undergoing under any testing as claimed by some members here lol).
