africaken254:
exactly as M242 bushmaster, Mk44 Bushmaster II and every other modern autocannon

The weapons (M242 and the Mk44 bushmaster) you mention are driven by chain.

Way different!

MikeCZAR:
And?

Remember the vehicle carries infantry whom will engage and clear the enemy's infantry, while having at their disposal fire support systems.

how many times have you seen TOW crews in syria target all sorts of targets without the enemy being aware ! but because you want to believe you have an invisible badger ICV .continue with your infatuation

To ME, They look like fasteners for the armoured sheets.

Don't you guys think the vehicle is over-armoured for it's size and use?

Badger has better optics than the obsolete series of t72 in syria

Armor deployed without infantry will allways be toast

They are bolts/rivets

Either holding the armor on the frame or for up-armoring

North Korea builds munitions factory in Nam
NAMIBIA'S dealings with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) have been found to be in contravention of United Nations sanctions imposed on that country.
The contravention includes the building of an armament factory.

International news media organisation Vice News reported that a UN Security Council report stated that officials in Namibia admitted to investigators that North Koreans were involved in several ventures in Namibia.

These ventures include the construction of a munitions factory in the capital, Windhoek.

Isn't up-armouring for this sort of vehicle, a Police LAV, excessive?

Not necessarily for up arming, you can as well have it repaired like kits. Remove a badly damaged part easily.

may be they meant for being deployed to northeastern nigeria ,where Nigeria police do encounter heavy armed boko haram with RPG-7 and Dshk
