For the first time, the model range of cars "Wolf" with a carrying capacity of 1.5 to 2.5 tons was presented in the town of Zhukovskoye near Moscow three years ago. The multipurpose vehicle is based on Tiger-type vehicles that have been tested in hot spots. The direct purpose of the "Wolf" is the transportation of soldiers in combat conditions, as well as anti-terrorist operations. Motorists, first of all, will be interested in a cutaway diesel engine that meets all the norms and requirements of European standards.
The machine has a frame structure and is equipped with a new independent suspension, a system for changing the ground clearance and a winch. The developers also took care of the protection concept, introducing frame-panel armor and 68 mm armored glass into the structure of the car. To observe the terrain and fire, the "Wolf" was equipped with a functional module with protective loopholes.
The power unit is 300 horsepower. The engineers of the "VITS" company took care of the power reserve in case of an increase in protection. The Wolf's five-speed manual transmission was inherited from his predecessor, the Tiger. The transmission resource is approximately 250 thousand kilometers.
It is planned to install equipment for driving schools on the car in order to train soldiers to operate new equipment. The multifunctional car "Wolf", among other things, must perform the tasks of defense of the territory, transport various cargoes, tow trailed systems, transport and assist in the installation of weapons and special equipment.
The "Wolves" family received very good marks from experts in the military industry, and this is already the first step towards the beginning of their serial production. Over time, the military-industrial company "VPK" LLC will have a chance to receive a state order for the mass production of this brand of cars, which is so necessary for our army.
