Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa Unveils New Borsuk IFV

Borsuk is powered by a powerpack consisting of a 720 hp (530 kW) MTU 8V199 TE20 turbo diesel engine, which drives a six gear Perkins X300 automatic transmission. The running gear consists of six dual rubber-lined road wheels, with two return rollers on each side. The suspension is hydropneumatic and consists of six Horstman InArm units on each side. Borsuk is able to use different types of tracks - it was presented on different occasions outfitted with steel tracks or composite rubber tracks (CRT). The vehicle is fully amphibious without any special preparations - crossing a body of water only requires raising the trim vane. In the water Borsuk is propelled by two water jets with rotating nozzles and steering capability. The Borsuk's maximum speed is 65 km/h on the road and 8 km/h in the water. Its operational range is 550 km. #military #defense #defence #militaryleak Read more https://militaryleak.com/2024/07/06/polska-grupa-zbrojeniowa-unveils-new-borsuk-amphibious-infantry-fighting-vehicle/
