Who be this people wey dey talk about tyres. Proforce is making an MRAP, not a tank or a hyrid MRAP. MRAPs dont have tracked or armoured wheels period. The day proforce build a tank then we would compare it with other tanks.

After all the body armor, the vehicle is still fitted with rubber tyres undecided

Sir, then you have no idea of a mine's effect... When a mine is done with those wheels, there will most likely only be squeezed and shredded metal where those tyres used to be sad

Please tell me the vehicle can run without wheels as well sad
This video should answer a lot of your questions

Are these really manufacturing or parts assemblage? To the best of my knowledge Nigeria does not have the capacity to MANUFACTURE any car, they one Assemble. FACT!

We should stop abusing the word abeg. No Nigerian company manufacture any car.. from Innoson to Proforce. Na assemblage all dey do.

And what does Toyota, Mercedes, Honda and the likes do?
Hello! They all assemble.

No car plant produces all its body part and accessories #FACT

MRAP vehicles are designed to save the soldiers first and not the car. Even if the tyres are made of iron wheels, a mine can still flip the vehicle and tilt it over rendering it immoveable.

You watched fury, yet you make this petty comment.
In Fury, did you listen to what was said about the ripped wheel? When asked, he said "It can Be Fixed"
The idea is to keep the soldiers safe inside irrespective of the mine they climbed, and not rip part or the entire vehicle apart. While the Tyres are fixed.

PROFORCE has finally released the final prototype of its long awaited Mine Resistance Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle. It is a very huge and beautiful beast. And it is proudly made in Nigeria by Proforce. Named ARA (THUNDER), it is a testimony of Nigerians' ingenuity. At least 9 units are currently on order by the Nigerian Army.
God bless Nigeria, God bless us all!

I am not aware that tyres can be anything other than rubber. The objective of the vehicle is primarily to safeguard the occupants from the blast hence the high lift and armour.

You probably are not aware of the concept of force complements. These vehicles don't travel alone and they are heavily armed. In the event that one of them is disabled, then expect a full and targeted response from the accompanying forces. I strongly suspect that these are run flat tyres. It will need a grenade launcher to disable them. Blast yes...happens to any MRV.
Proforce is heavy on research and you can be sure this replaces the south african variants we have been using.

Totally disappointed In you. (Especially knowing you watched Fury. You didnt learn anything from it)

'it can be fixed' is much different from 'it can be fixed quickly and immediately without much risk'... . Since you watched the movie, I suppose you know how it all ended sad
