Tracked IFV miz var.

40t tracked IFV, we are talking about. Not the stone old M-114 coffins.

Acv-15 is not a real ifv.

Acv-15 is not a real ifv.

That's because it's an ACV, as such it is geared to have swing role capabilities.

Its still a coffin. Would you like to see our soldiers in that WW2 vehicle?

 

[Tornadoss]

Unless we deploy aps on these vehicles, they are sitting ducks.

Seems like ssb is full of old people who doesn't want to replace these garbages even an rpg can penetrate Its armor. We need something like a Bradley

As if the M2 Bradley is so much better, i hope you know that a RPG-7 would penetrate the armour of Bradley pretty easily? It's hull armor is made out of Aluminum mostly...

Turkish IFV like Tulpar or Kaplan, that's what the TSK needs not a bigger modified M113 rebranded as M2 Bradley.

Im not talking about the stock bradley tho latest configuration of it is pretty solid I agree we need tulpar or kaplan series of IFVs

Not really. They are decent vehicles and the nefer tower is really good for recon. Maybe they use it for armoured recon or for paratroopers. I dont know if tsk has ever airdropped vehicles vefore but maybe they should try it.

Its expensive hence why you have so many countries including the usa and russia using decades old equipment. Rather than scrapping they modernise them.

The IFVs US and Russia have are still much better than what we are using tho. They have both anti personnel and anti armour ammunitions Unlike our acvs that solely armed with 25mm autocannon At least we should 2 kornets or umtas to the turret. @Ryder

Finally MKE has started serial production of the modernisation project of the 50 M113 ZMAs.
The project involves making the M113 vehicles more up to date by introducing a hybrid drivetrain.

This project will be a good guideline as to how well and how cheaply we can turn these outdated armoured vehicles in to modern and effective fighting machines.

Unless these vehicles are unmanned I can not see their usefulness, apart from being R&D project.

In unmanned format, it will have an operational radius of around 5km. But this can be augmented as the project becomes a reality, such as by utilising higher positioned relay stations.
Most important outcome of this project will be; It will give us more confidence in hybridisation of our T-155 Firtina howitzer engines. That will hopefully lead to Altay’s Hybrid drivetrain.

In a tweet it says
(There are closse to 10k M113 in TSK )
I thought Turkey only have 2-3k of those

 

[Stimpy75]

then your first guess was right sth above 3600 M113's
...who comes with 10000 M113?
just ask google amca next time to be sure

E-ZMA (M113 modernization) project is a stepping stone.
