Ai ya!u think in the same mind set like in ATTC.
wat u mean is Any platform go into war mean it is
proven.
It only will be proved
if it is up to the
task after assessment.
In UK ATTC,The BAE Viking is proved not up to the
requirements of UK MOD!!
If MOD follow your logic ,why UK MOD need Singapore Bronco ATTC
to replace
Viking?
UK confirms
to buy more than 100 Bronco worths 150 m pounds
@@@@@@@@
1.Do u think the M777 crews would be happy to rod ramming
every
round into the chamer?How long can the crews substain to
ram the shells into the chambers.
The gun can substain the firing,but not the crews.
All human will feel tired.In Pegasus,this is the flick
rammer do the job.Can u see the differences?
2.Do u think they will be happy to shift the gun say 10
meter
uphill like a hell?M777 is a powerless platform.
This is no joke to shift a 4770 kg monster,especially
in muddy or uphill terrain!!In Pegasus ,it is like driving
a lorry.
Just to mention two of the weakness of M 777.

and so the lion wishes to test his logic ?
and i shall happily frolic
in his lalaland of superflous licks
he is about to get a vicious kick.
UK MOD bought
STK bronco for reasons Nought
that have to do with BvS10 and Bvs206 thoughts,

frought

The Viking All Terrain Protected Vehicles have
proved so effective on
operations in Afghanistan that the Marines who drive them are back
in Helmand. And there is no other vehicle they'd rather be
in. Report by Danny Chapman.

The Viking is a Royal Marine asset, but due to their popularity
the demand for their use is high amongst all troops patrolling and
conducting operations in Helmand. Consequently, the demand on the
Marines trained to drive them is high too.
...
"Apart from that I can't fault them at all. I am actually in love with
this vehicle! You couldn't ask for a better
vehicle. It can go anywhere, it doesn't need set patterns and it's
not restricted to certain routes."
Major Stemp explained why the Viking is so
good:
"The Viking was brought into the Royal Marine Corps five or six
years ago. It was a new concept, as we'd not had protected mobility
before. We put in a wish list of what we wanted from a vehicle and
the MOD fulfilled this."
Another Royal Marine back in Bastion from the Royal Marines'
Armoured Support Company is Lance Corporal Dean Walker, aged 21. He
said:
"The Viking opens up a lot more operations. We can move where,
with and who we want."
"The battlefield is a fast moving place and the Viking is
capable of keeping the enemy on the back foot," asserted Cpl
Whitby.
And Marine Aylett added:
"They provide us with a lot of protection and allow us to get
closer to the enemy. It's very reliable, can go up a hill and never
gets bogged down like other vehicles."
Phenomenal
Good
Reliable
superflous they may seem
excellence is what they are.
blooded in combat
proven in war
they arent like a bronco
all new and raw
only the lion appears to be
a mindless rah rah supporter of STK technology
why the british love their vikings
maybe because it suit their likings
to call them not up to tasking
maybe a question worth asking
why, when and how
can lionnoisy explain this now ?

The Vikings are unstoppable in Afghanistan. The
All Terrain Protected Vehicles' arrival at a scene of conflict
instils relief in British Troops, confidence in the local
population and, perhaps most importantly, fear in the
Taliban.
"They are extremely good for rocking up and scaring the
shit out of the Taliban. They really don't like it," says Corporal
Kev Walker
Before arriving in Helmand Cpl Walker hadn't seen the
Viking on operations. Despite some initial teething problems, he is
impressed:
"I think they're doing a fantastic job. They're awesome vehicles
for what they do. The teething problems were down to the terrain.
If you put any vehicle across that terrain, which is mountainous,
rocky, dusty and sandy and has everything that will knacker up
gears, it will have trouble with it."
Corporal Kev Walker, 1 Battalion Royal Electrical &
Mechanical Engineers
The Vikings are often called into a situation to take up a
position of overwatch. They are used as taxis for getting troops
into an area other vehicles would not be able to access, and
can also be used as ambulances; getting casualties out of
a situation:
"They make a massive difference to the operation," says Cpl
Walker. "We were working closely with the Ghurkhas and the Royal
Welsh and you could see the relief on their faces when the Viking
turns up.
"The Royal Welsh got contacted by an anti aircraft gun. My troop
went in with the Vikings to create a screen, allowing them to get
out. We put down heavy fire from the Viking's General Purpose
Machine Gun (It is also fitted with 350 calibre guns), and before
we left, having taken no casualties, it looked like all the Taliban
had left. If we didn't have something like the Viking it wouldn't
have been such a happy ending. It was pretty heavy terrain too and
I'm not sure any other vehicle could have got in there."

Their mobility also allows them to veer off main roads and
known routes - which tend to be where most mines are laid. Staff
Sergeant Chris Hanks, also a REME in Bastion explains:
"They can cope with the terrain because they have track
mobility, which is much better than wheeled vehicles and gets
bogged down less."
"We know the Taliban don't like them. They're pretty much
unstoppable," adds Cpl Walker.
