So basically the 5-tonner is a TALL vehicle..

any new technologies to make the vehicle more safe to drive??

Can Bionix flip on it's side as well? I don't think so right

i heard from my friend in tekong that the driver is speeding and that the v com is a CPT! the v com definately is to be blamed too. cos he's the one who must assume total safety. Neutral

No, BX don't flip onto its side only, it even flips all the way upside down, it sinks in water too. Very Happy

Of course the 5 ton is high lah, just look at the suspension, it has to go off road mah. What other new techologies you want? Active-yaw control? Limited slip differentials?

You think a 5-tonner must pass the moose test and if failed, be given ESP like the MB A-Class?Dream on.It is a military vehicle.And it’s designed for utilitarian purposes.We need safer drivers and alert veh comds, that’s all.

A CPT as a V-com is NOT TRUE. I read the incident report for this incident. It's a tonner from one of the SAR that starts with 4 (haha, its 4X SAR)

anyway, till investigations are completed, i guess we should not comment further. But the incident happened around Permatang.

but i was really impressed by the sound system in Pulau Tekong's IMT.... i did not know there was an heli-evac until i heard it from news later on. I was surprised to find out the incident happened in Pulau Tekong, I was in IMT then and totally heard nothing.

The recruits who reported sick told me that the heli-evac was damn swift... the heli landed not longer than 45 secs.

Can a 5-Tonner execute high speed turns?

ditzy SG

Its a tonner, not a rally car. Watched Terminator 1, 2, and 3? You get the idea. Very Happy

So a 5-Tonner is like a SBS double decker lar..
that means if do tight turns.. will flip over..

how come SBS double decker so huge..cruise around same speed as 5-tonner but never flip over?

ditzy SG

If double decker's flipped over half as often, would they still be in service? Pack one double decker service and make every single person sit on the upper deck plus people standing on the upperdeck. Then we see if it flips over or not. Very Happy

That one 5 tonner flipped over in tekong is an isolated case laaaaaahhhh.......... Very Happy

Err..actualli i think the CG for the new 5 tonners too high liao and and besides that the suspension is too springy so maybe tt's y it flips over so easily, add to that the blinds spots..

I think this tonner flip not 1st case liao..think saw on tv b4 that one guards tonner also hit tree then flip..somewhere ard sungei gedong.

which 4X unit is tt? active unit rite? hope nt mine former unit...at tekong muz be close terrain training.
