ASV ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIER (APC)<br />
PROTECTING THE WARFIGHTER<br />
Equipped with Gunner Protection Kit (GPK)<br />
The APC is a platform that adapts new technologies while minimizing development time and cost. This superbly engineered and<br />
battle-tested design continues to meet new and emerging threats associated with the next generation of warfare.<br />
When equipped with a GPK, the APC provides:<br />
• Extended crew compartment for three crew members and up to seven dismounts.<br />
• Fully independent front and rear suspension and superior mobility<br />
• Increased protection and 360-degree visibility to the gunner<br />
• Gunner protection to maintain gunner-ready position<br />
• Protection against armor-piercing ammunition and fragmentation threats<br />
• Situational awareness for the gunner.
ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIER VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS<br />
The APC is recognized as one of the best-in-class wheeled,<br />
<strong>armored</strong> combat vehicles due to:<br />
• Survivability - Scalable bolt-on<br />
appliqué provides protection from<br />
direct and indirect weapons, mines<br />
and improvised explosive devices<br />
(IEDs). Low aural, thermal and<br />
visual profiles<br />
• Mobility – Four-wheel drive allows<br />
freedom to maneuver over all<br />
terrain<br />
• Lethality – GPK keeps the gunner<br />
protected while in weapon<br />
engagement position<br />
• Sustainability - Highly maintainable,<br />
organically supported, proven high<br />
operational readiness in more than<br />
six years of combat operations.<br />
Combat experience has shown the<br />
survivability advantages of the GPK<br />
which allows the gunner to maintain<br />
a protected gunner-ready position<br />
for near 360-degree visibility from<br />
the safety of the APC. The GPK<br />
defeats armor-piercing ammunition<br />
and fragmentation threats for the<br />
warfighter. The vehicle offers excellent<br />
handling, ride quality and mobility.<br />
The APC enables combat troops<br />
to drive all-terrain missions beyond<br />
the capabilities of most MRAPs. A<br />
cost-effective force multiplier in every<br />
sense, the APC continues to play<br />
a formidable role on a changing<br />
battlefield.<br />
