Pakistan army obtain 3 LAZAR2 Vehicles

[HAIDER]

"Lazar2 is up to three times cheaper than its counterpart from Finland, Patria, and its advantages in price and equipment are proven by the fact that buyers have already been found and that 3 vehicles have been sold to Pakistan,"Vučić said.

only 3? Pakistan need hundreds of such vehicles, plus attack helis and armed drones.

Its will be official soon. According to Serbian defence forum member , Pakistan Army is buying the whole manufacturing facility. Means build under license. These three might be evaluation version ..

This is what wikipedia is saying:

Multi role armored vehicle Lazar 8x8 is based on modifications of the above mentioned concept and the technical solutions implemented on the functional model of Lazar vehicle.These modifications are carried on with the purpose to further harmonize the basic characterictic of the vehicle with contemporary world trends in delevompent of families of multi-role armored wheel-type vehicle. The concept of Lazar 2 represent of combination of the concept of vehicles class MRAP and MRAV (Multirole Armoured Vehicle),but it is closer to the MRAV concept first of all because of introduction of independent suspension. The concept provides for installation of different types of gun turrets and weapon compartments depending on basic purpose of the vehicle.[4][5]

Lazar 2 first prototype is publicly presented in 2013 Partner – International Fair of Defense Systems and Equipment. It is produced by Yugoimport SDPR in new "Complex Battle System" factory in Velika Plana, Serbia.[6]

Pakistan has expressed great interest in Lazar 2 even before prototype was introduced. It has ordered 15 pcs of Lazar 2[7] First 3 Lazar 2 for Pakistan are sold[8]

Most probably PA has decided to induct these or want some kind of co development to happen. Seems to be a decent platform with good capabilities.

This vehicle has a standard steel hull with STANAG level III+ protection in the basic configuration, although additional laminate armor developed by Jugoimport provides an upgrade to NATO STANAG 4569 agreement level V+ armor protection. In addition to the two armor configurations mentioned, both can be upgraded with ERA packets for protection against close range urban attacks with RPG weapons, as well as cages and other means of protecting against heavy fire. The armor itself can be considered NERA and is meant only to protect against infantry portable weapons. The ballistic glass is extremely strong, rated at level III in the front and level II+ at the sides. In addition, the specially formatted hull and internal seating arrangement affords maximum protection against IED devices, anti-tank mines and other ground-level explosive devices.
The V-shaped hull and special drive train construction affords excellent mobility in mud pit situations, over deep trenches, icy and slippery surfaces as well as inclines smaller than 50 degrees. Each wheel and tire has centrally controlled pressure and is created in such a way as to be useful even if the tires are completely destroyed (run flat inserts); the quick lock mechanism allows for fast replacement. The 440 HP engine provides good acceleration but low speed over treacherous terrain, a standardized mechanical transmission allows for direct control. Steering and suspension both are primarily hydraulic and both have mechanical backups. Brakes are dual circuited pneumatics and have an on-off ABS switch in the cab. The range is 600 km and the top speed is 90 km/h. Wheel configuration is independent and allows fording to 1.5 meters deep and trench hopping at 2m of depth.
The thing which stands out about the Lazar is the open side system which allows troops inside to use their own personal weapons (40mm grenade launchers, assault rifles etc.) to engage the enemy or help locate threats in a 360 degree area. Of course, in addition to this open concept system there are a variety of turrets, cupolas and other weapons systems depending on budget and application of vehicle.

Sorry but that is not about Lazar 2. Only data available for Lazar 2 is this:

And here are a few more interesting pics:

All thanks for the pics goes to dzumba from Palubainfo forum.

Which IFVs are operated by bangladesh?

Sorry but i don't have any information concerning that. It is possible, but we might find out is it true or not, only after our countries decide to publicly announce that. If you ask me, Bangladesh is pretty much secretive about defence purchases. Recently we sold you BOV M11, but our representatives only said that the buyer is undisclosed south Asian country.
