Enabling real-time decision makingTodays warghter needs real-time situational awareness. Our network control software and wideband radios bring the power of the network to you, signi cantly reducing your decision cycle. On the battle eld, many sensors stream video to operation centers at various places. By networking these data together, an individual has access to the sum total of the information available to use in his decision-making processes. No matter where you are, you can pull information from any sensor. When it comes to facilitating fast, comprehensive data delivery, count on L-3 to give you real information dominance.

direct enemy engagement and an ever increasing mine and IED threat has added a complex and ever shifting range of protection related challenges which have had to be met head-on through intelligent analysis, detailed requirements writing and a robust, timely and cost effective industry response.

As the IED and mine threat has increased, the MRAP / mine protected class of vehicles has swiftly become more prominent across the British operational eet in Afghanistan. This class of vehicle, which includes platforms such as MASTIFF and RIDGEBACK etc, has proved invaluable as the Talibans tactics have increasingly shifted away from direct engagement with British troops, where they invariably lose, to a more deliberate and intelligent use of mines and IEDs. As good as they are though; these heavy, highly protected leviathans do, by their very nature, have limited all terrain capability.

In late 2006 the Royal Marines introduced the BvS10 VIKING All Terrain Vehicle (Protected) (ATV(P)) into theatre for the rst time and with great success. The twin cab con guration and four track drive providing commanders with a highly exible and truly all terrain vehicle, capable of operating across the full climatic and topographical range whilst affording the embarked infantry and crew a good degree of protection against small arms and fragmentation.

As the protection levels of VIKING grew to meet the evolving threat, the vehicle eventually reached maximum stretch potential in its current con guration. The UK MOD therefore decided to look for an alternative vehicle to VIKING, but one which would, crucially, provide an equal degree of all terrain mobility combined with a large payload and greatly increased protection levels, particularly against mines and IEDs

In December 2008 the UK MOD signed a contract with Singapore Technologies Kinetics for 100+ WARTHOG All Terrain Tracked Carriers (ATTC) as part of the Urgent Operational Requirements (UOR) programme. WARTHOG will replace VIKING in Helmand province with a swap over starting in mid 2010. WARTHOG is an upgraded version of ST Kinetics BRONCO ATTC, many hundreds of which are in service with the Singaporean Armed Forces.

Dubbed WARTHOG in a bid to celebrate its rugged and functional looks, the vehicle bene ts from a twin cab, articulated, four-track drive con guration similar to BvS10 VIKING. However, with a higher volume, a ve tonne payload and maximum GVW of 18+ tonnes, there is signi cant scope for additional protection and the addition of a Plattmounts protected Weapon Station with multi weapon capability. A truly modular system, the rear cab can be modi ed to provide a wide range of capabilities and variants; over 20 of which are currently in service. WARTHOG will initially be supplied to the UK MOD in four basic variants: Troop Carrier, Command, Ambulance and Repair / Recovery.

WARTHOG will be operated by the British Army under the Director Royal Armoured Corps (unlike VIKING which is a Naval Command / Royal Marines platform). Training for new crews and commanders is currently under development and due to commence in early 2010, centred at the Armour Centre in Bovington, Dorset. For those crews already trained on BvS10 VIKING, which includes a large number of men from the Royal Armoured Corps, the conversion training will be particularly simple and ef cient.

ST Kinetics ability to react to an Urgent Operational Requirement whilst simultaneously upgrading and modifying the BRONCO ATTC to meet the UK MODs stringent platform requirements demonstrates a high

degree of industrial agility and proves STK to be an evolving, world class defence supplier.

Author: Major (Rtd) Jez Hermer MBE

h e need to stay at least one step ahead of the enemy drives the UK MOD to keep the operational vehicle eet under constant review. Here Major Jez Hermer, former commander of the Royal Marines

Armoured Support Company (Afghanistan) explains the rationale behind the acquisition of the new WARTHOG All Terrain Vehicle.

British forces have been conducting war ghting operations in Helmand Province, Southern Afghanistan since early 2006. From the outset the intensity of the con ict took British troops and commanders by surprise as the Taliban sought to x and strike British forces who lacked the land-mobility assets suitable to prosecute a truly manoeuvre-based campaign.

In a bid to break out of the xed British platoon houses which were often isolated for weeks at a time and under constant attack, a number of legacy and new combat vehicles were introduced into theatre, eventually resulting in a highly effective manoeuvre capability. As the con ict and threat levels continued to evolve the requirement constantly to keep the combat vehicle eet under review has seen a myriad vehicle upgrades and a number of new vehicle platforms emerge as part of the theatre capability.

The harsh physical environment of Helmand Province provides an exceptional challenge for combat and combat support vehicles. With temperatures ranging from -20C to +50C, a mean altitude of over 1000m above sea level, a paucity of roads, mixed desert and mountain terrain and a wet season which results in large swathes of Helmand becoming un-passable to most vehicles, all-terrain performance remains a core capability component for all combat vehicles. Moreover,
