Nepal's
army and police have been placed on high alert, a government minister
said Tuesday, after the opposition Maoist party announced plans to blockade
the capital and shut down the main airport.
Benefiting from Iveco’s extensive development
work in the area of crew and vehicle survivability,
the SUPERAV 8x8 Armoured Personnel Carrier features
a unique combination of performance, payload and
protection. Designed for sea operation in Sea State
2 and beyond, the new SUPERAV 8x8 is a medium weight
vehicle capable of maintaining its amphibious capability
even at high protection levels. A 500HP engine coupled
to an automatic gearbox, a twin-shaft driveline
design and fully independent suspension give it
impressive mobility on any terrain. It can carry
up to 12 dismounts plus the driver, and features
advanced protection against direct fire, shell splinters,
landmines and IEDs. While the detailed technical
specification of the vehicle will be unveiled later
this year, it is anticipated that the SUPERAV 8x8
will be developed into a family including all of
the normal combat support variants.
