Definitions

  • the invention relates to a protection concept for a medium-weight military support vehicle.
  • the GB 543,742 A indicates a possibility to provide a simple tractor with a protection, the front wheels of which are excluded.
  • This protection is designed as an armored steel cover, which is placed on the axles of the wheels.
  • Another form of protection shows the FR 1,189,351 .
  • the US 6,382,069 B1 discloses a mine clearance vehicle with a cab mounted far from the mine triggering means on the vehicle chassis and embodied as an armored, spring-mounted cab.
  • the article "Battle Tank Suite 2" - Online - reveals that the chassis of the Leopard Battle Tank is used for the construction of an armored recovery vehicle (buffalo), a bridge iguana, a pioneer tank (Kodiak) or a mine clearance vehicle (Keiler).
  • Medium duty military support vehicles are designed to support such military wheeled and tracked vehicles in weight classes 25t to 45t as well as being intended as work equipment of the Pioneer Groups. These support vehicles are divided into at least four categories, the mountain, bridge, pioneer and demining variants.
  • the DE 1 907 050 A1 which forms a starting point for claim 1, describes a tracked vehicle for military purposes. It is the object of the invention to provide a tracked vehicle with which the total technical effort for a variety of required different vehicles can be substantially reduced.
  • the vehicle has a base vehicle part for receiving a plurality of different structures.
  • the basic vehicle part an armored cab is attached.
  • the medium-duty assistance vehicles are according to the well-known doctrines in addition to the classic use scenarios, such as attack and position situations, used inter alia in peacekeeping measures, these vehicles are also exposed to a ballistic threat 360 ° and are threatened by anti-tank and personnel mines and by explosive devices , This fact would require a complete protection of the vehicle. However, these vehicles are also subject to the requirement to be air-transportable.
  • the invention takes on the task of demonstrating a protection concept, with the help of which to meet the requirement for the protection of the crew and the Lufiverladbarkelt of the vehicle.
  • the invention is based on the idea to provide at least the area on the vehicle with adapted all-round protection, which serves to accommodate a crew.
  • the other areas receive minimal protection designed for the basic threat.
  • the DE 202 21 019 U1 discloses a mine clearance vehicle having a camera cab and a guard cell for an operator. This can be integrated in place of the camera cabin or in addition to this in the front area of the clearing vehicle.
  • the protective cell is made of a shatterproof armor steel or composite material. This creates a possibility that the clearing vehicle can be operated either directly or remotely controlled.
  • An essential feature of the present protection concept is a separate, decoupled and self-contained crew cell. Under the tank bottom of the chassis a mine protection plate is adapted in the area of the crew cell. Furthermore, the cell is strictly separated from the hydraulic or chassis area. By this measure, the danger to the crew is minimized by possible deflagrations of combustible liquids.
  • the crew cell In the outdoor area, the crew cell is equipped with additional armor (add-on armor). Also provided are reactive and / or active protection modules against antitank guns and / or directional mines with horizontal action.
  • the crew cell is equipped with a liner on the inside, which on the one hand reduces the splinter cones of a ballistic penetration and on the other hand has a structure-borne and heat-insulating effect. Furthermore, the crew cell and / or the chassis may be equipped with reactive and active protection modules against antitank guns and horizontal directional mines.
  • the crew cell is hung on suitable bearings in the chassis. Similar is already from the DE 196 53 283 C1 as well as the DE 10 2004 026 237 A1 and DE 10 2004 006 819 A1 known. On the one hand, shock loads from mine or explosive detonations are decoupled via these bearings and vibration and structure-borne noise are minimized.
  • the crew cell also has sufficiently large viewing windows and angle mirrors for a direct view to the outside and also electronic visual aids, such as day and night vision cameras and sensors. Other cameras and sensors on the vehicle serve to provide the crew with sufficient information about the surrounding environment (similar to civilian vehicle construction).
  • the lenses are designed as Pz laminated glass against the corresponding threat and have a laser protection filter to protect the eyes of the crew from unwanted laser light.
  • Lowerable or hinged panels are also provided, which on the one hand form an additional ballistic protection and can be used against splinters, but on the other hand can be used as passive protection if the crew room is to be darkened.
  • the screens also serve to prevent reflective reflections of light on the surface of the pane.
  • a kind of intercom is to be integrated into the vehicle in order to prevent the crew having to open a door or hatch when making contact with strangers.
  • the seats of the crew are integrated in the crew cell in such a way that they meet the requirements of load reduction in mine clearance and vibration decoupling.
  • the seats are equipped with restraint systems and corresponding headrests.
  • the crew also preferably has at least one hatch in the roof area and a door preferably at the rear of the crew cell.
  • the crew cell also includes protective effects and anti-ABC air conditioning systems as well as crew room air conditioning. This makes it possible to keep the physiological burdens of the crew low.
  • the chassis has a closed hydraulic area in which parts of the fuel system can be accommodated. Hydraulic room and engine room each have a fire extinguishing system. In the intake area of the engine cooling system, Fire-Wire sensors are integrated, which shut off the radiator fans in case of an external fire.
  • Active protective measures are another embodiment of the vehicle. These include, for example, a Nebel schemestrom and a manual or remote-controlled weapons system. Jammers have the task of triggering booby traps far in front of the vehicle.
  • camouflage kits are provided in addition to suitable camouflage nets, which reduce the optical, IR and radar signatures or greatly modify.
  • the engine exhaust gases and the cooling air are deployed shielded at the rear of the vehicle rear. Additional air brakes, rear vents and insulations shield the hot gases from the vehicle structure.
  • the particles in the exhaust gases of the engine can be minimized by suitable internal engine measures and / or filters.
  • the Pioneer tank is equipped with an excavator system with quick-change system and allows, as in all activities, a change of tools under armored protection. Dozer and mine clearing work is also carried out exclusively under armored protection.
  • the recovery vehicle is equipped with a battlefield device that allows the recovery of damaged vehicles under armored protection.
  • the bridge armor is also designed for laying out and receiving modular bridge parts. These vehicle concepts can often be combined with each other.
  • the so-called universal support vehicle thus combines the essential features of the recovery, pioneer and mine clearance variant.
  • the bridge laying variant is formed by a modification of the basic structure in the roof construction and arrangement of the crew compartment. An identical chassis serves as the basis for different vehicle variants. Such a concept is also from the EP 0 974 510 A1 known.
  • Fig. 1 such as Fig. 2 show a universal support vehicle variant 1. It is designed in this variant as mine clearance and excavator vehicle.
  • the vehicle 1 is operated by a crew 2 in a crew cell 3.
  • the closed crew cell 3 is decoupled on a chassis 4 by means of suitable elements.
  • the crew cell 3 has viewing windows 31 made of Pz laminated glass and additional armor 32. Furthermore, the crew cell 3 has a roof exit 33 and / or a rear exit 34. As a suitable protective measure, the crew cell 3, an air conditioning system 35 against ABC threats and a crew room air conditioning 36th on. In addition, the crew cell 3 is surrounded by a hood 5, which on the one hand receives the lateral adaptive protection 51 and the roof protection 52. On the hood 5 a Ltdandantenkuppel 53 and a weapon station 54 is placed. In addition, on the hood 5 or at the weapon station 54 fog fluid throw systems 55 can be adapted. Alternatively, an attachment to the vehicle chassis 4 is possible. The Nebelstoffschtechnikstrom 55 also explosive grenades are strig.
  • the viewing windows 31 can be protected by flap apertures 37.
  • the crew has also by means of the angle mirror 38 a sufficient view.
  • a mine protection plate 41 is adapted in the area of the crew cell 3.
  • the drive area 42 can be covered front, rear and side by means of chain skirts 43.
  • Fig. 3 shows the raised from the chassis 4 crew cell 3 in an exploded view. Visible also the hood 5, the adaptive protection 51 and the roof protection 52nd
