NEWS UPDATE: German Mountain Division orders 75 x BV206S Ridgways

Germany Orders All Terrain Vehicles From BAE SYSTEMS' Hagglunds

Defense Daily International:

The German procurement agency announced last month it signed an order valued at approximately $44 million for 75 Bv206S all-terrain vehicles with BAE SYSTEMS' Land Systems Hagglunds. The Bv206S is an armored variant of the Bv206, with a load capacity of 1,550 kg, and can tow a 2,500 kg trailer. A unique hydraulic steering linkage connects the front and rear units, allowing greater flexibility and maneuverability. The vehicle can be air dropped and transported by various aircraft and helicopters. The German army now has 168 Bv206 vehicles. The new Bv206S armored vehicles will be used in the Germany army's Mountain Brigade. The order is part of Germany's requirement for some 200 vehicles. The first batch of 31 x Bv206S was ordered in 2002.
