Brazilian reconnaissance wagons with Israeli ppk

defence24.pl 1 year ago
The Brazilian army presently has about 400 EE-9 Cascavel reconnaissance vehicles in the state, which will be upgraded in 98 copies (although even 200 vehicles were mentioned earlier). This work will include, among another things, replacing the Detroit Diesel 6V-53N engine with 212 hp for the newer and stronger diesel MWM Acteon 6.12 TCE with 225 hp, which will be coupled with Allison 3000 transmission. The suspension itself will besides be improved. A crucial change will be the placing in the vehicle a fire control strategy along with fresh reflection and targeting instruments in a somewhat modified vehicle tower. Keyly, the EE-9 (after retrofitting defined as EE-9 Novo Cascavel) will besides receive a double anti-tank rocket launcher guided by Spike-LR2, and consequently, the ability to destruct modern primary tanks. AKAER Engenharia is liable for all the work commissioned by the Brazilian Land Army. Unmodified EE-9s will yet be replaced by Centauro II fire support wagons.
