Designation:

F2US

Info
Manufactured by: Krauss-Maffei Wegmann GmbH & Co.KG - KMW  
Type: Armoured Vehicles  
Name: Reconnaissance Vehicle  
 
 

The F2US vehicle family is scalable in size and can easily be configured to meet different mission requirements due to its modular design. Two independent drive trains for the front and rear axles permit an undivided compartment space with greater versatility.

The F2US family of vehicles offers the same capabilities in all versions, because the main components and subsystems are identical for the 4x4 patrol vehicle version with a crew of 3, as well as the 6x6 vehicle version with space for up to 11 crew members. This permits simple swapping of components, and reduces the logistic footprint for the entire family of vehicles to a minimum. In addition, the use of commercial off-the-shelf components guarantees fast availability of the components all around the globe.

The F2US vehicle is equipped with the latest proven protection technology to withstand modern ballistic, mine and IED threats. In addition, the F2 family has a very low silhouette as well as an extraordinarily low infrared and radar signature.

The propulsion is achieved at more than 20 kW per tonne of vehicle weight. A mobility concept derived from the proven, reliable and unique mobility of KMW's FENNEK scout car permits the F2US to negotiate gradients of 60 percent and side slopes of up to 30 percent without difficulty at a range of over 1000 kilometers. The vehicles are air-transportable, so they can be moved quickly and easily to distant deployment areas.
