    This is the new indigenous light armored vehicle developed by Steelcraft for the Philippine Army:





    The chassis is said to be based on a commercial SUV.

    Engine is Mitsubishi.

    Armor Level : Equivalent to Simba APC

    Mobility : Equivalent to Humvee (with shorter turning radius), 4X4

    Maintenance : Commercially available parts, low cost (no foreign dependence on parts)

    Design & Manufacture : 100% Filipino (same guys who made the Kalakian)

    Cost : 1/3 compared to imported
    more details...
