Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Nobody: 2:35pm On Sep 17, 2015 |
patches689:because you have got an article from a reporter who is clueless about the history and genesis of V shaped hull ,which if you would like to know its inception is Rhodesia,that is truth and the only truth !

africaken: I dont "think" anything I am telling you the facts that I know Casspir is a lighter vehical than most US made MRAP's and yet has the same (if not better) STANAG rating Which just goes to show - making MRAP's is not "easy" 1 Like |
Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by patches689: 2:46pm On Sep 17, 2015 |
africaken: Who invented the MRAP is not the topic of discussion. Because, fvcking we did long before the Rhodesians with the Hyena My citation which I posted is to show you that the American Buffalo is actually a Casspir that has been refitted with an extending arm based on your statement that the Buffalo was somehow better than the Casspir. And since we are talking about MRAP's, I would like to point out that the V-hull is not the end all and be all of an MRAP. It is the monoquocue hull. 2 Likes

africaken:Yet the Casspir can withstand a IED/Mine blast twice/Double that of the Cougar under the hull!! The Casspir is also proteted against 7.62 x 51 mm NATO ammunition same as the Cougar. |
