Eurosatory 2024 Day 3: General Dynamics Unveils Ascod, Pandur 6x6, Eagle 6x6, and More

[@gringoloco5989]

All these wheeled vehicles have in common their creator MOWAG. This Swiss company developed the Piranha concept at the end of the 50ies for the Swiss army. The concept was so successful that it was a real export success for Switzerland. After the fall iron curtain, the sales slowing, General Dynamics take the opportunity to buy MOWAG and so inheriting the Piranha they were not able to conceive and build. General Dynamics had the possibility to produce in other countries, avoiding the Swiss export ban in countries with tensions or at war. He is mostly sold under the name of Stryker but despite US add-on remains fundamentally a Piranha. All multi-axles military vehicles are inspired by the Piranha even if diverging from the Swiss original concept.

Yeah, we can't go to them, but it's sort of like attending them.

I love this channel, it just relaxes me and makes me happy with this militaristic themes. Don't like news from Holywood or politicians so this is news for me... Thanks for your work.

principle dictates that unmanned turrets are supposed to be smaller than manned turrets, but it's not . . . bcos an unmanned turret doesn't need to have the extra room that is otherwise reserved for the tank's crew . . . but surprisingly unmanned turrets are still pretty large . . . the Pandur 6X6 could do with a turretless variant . . . instead it'll have a heightened (raised) hull & equipped with a heavy duty 6.3 in. suspension lift for enhanced unhindered mobility in harsh off road terrain . . .

There's a lot of new technology being put in turrets and they still need space to maintain all the parts. If it never had to be maintained they could pack everything as close as possible but that's just not feasible in reality

[@agactual7901]

Logic dictates that whenever you give the Military more empty space, they love to add in more ammo & stuff. That's why unmanned turrets are not getting smaller 😎
