The full size vehicles on display at outdoor stand C371 in area
Pe6a are the CV90MkIV infantry fighting vehicle which was recently
selected by the Slovakia Ministry of Defence as its preferred
system for the procurement of Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs) for
the Slovak Army, the ARCHER 155mm mobile howitzer, and the BvS10
all-terrain vehicle, along with advanced guided weapon systems and
situational awareness technologies.
CV90: The CV90 is combat proven and trusted and exists in
more than a dozen variants for different mission sets. It is in use
with seven countries and is interoperable with NATO forces. The
CV90MkIV is the latest version of the tracked IFV with advanced
digitized solutions for situational awareness and targeting,
integrated anti-tank guided missiles, and Active Protection System
for increased survivability.
BvS10: BvS10 is an armored all-terrain vehicle ideal for
operations in Arctic and cold weather environments. It can traverse
ice, steep mountains, and rocks, and its amphibious capability
allows it to swim while operating in some of the most remote areas
the planet has to offer. Its modular design allows it to be
reconfigured for varying missions. The Swedish Army recently
ordered 127 BvS10s and it is also under consideration for the
European joint acquisition program for the Cold Weather All-Terrain
Vehicle (CATV) program. Its sister vehicle, the unarmored Beowulf,
is under consideration for the U.S. Army’s CATV program.
ARCHER: ARCHER is a wheeled mobile 155mm howitzer capable
of initiating fire within 30 seconds of receiving an order and can
depart its position in the same amount of time, giving it superior
“shoot and scoot” capability by minimizing the enemy’s ability to
effectively return fire. Its automated ammunition magazine stows 21
rounds, and which can be fired in less than three minutes. With
guided munitions it can reach targets in excess of 50km.
360 MVP Sensor™: The 360 MVP Sensor™ system improves
ground vehicles’ situational awareness, reduces crew cognitive
load, and integrates easily with other vehicle protection system
features – all to enhance crew response time, survivability, and
mission success. It is comprised of high-definition, extended-view
sensors built with BAE Systems’ 1920x1200 longwave infrared camera
cores, the 360 MVP Sensor™ system delivers low-latency imagery
during the day, at night, in adverse weather, and in challenging
natural and manmade battlefield conditions.
Check6™: The Check-6™ rear-vision system is a camera
system for ground vehicles that provides high-quality situational
awareness to ground forces. The plug and play system utilizes a
qualified, uncooled, infrared camera core that is embedded into
U.S. Department of Defense taillights. With a universal fit for all
U.S. ground vehicles, Check-6 does not require a custom mount or
armor holes. This innovative solution provides a streamlined path
for vehicle installation that can be accomplished as a
field-upgrade kit, allowing for minimal vehicle downtime.
APKWS® laser-guidance kit: The APKWS guidance kit
transforms an unguided 2.75-inch (70 millimeter) rocket into a
precision-guided rocket that gives military aircraft and ground
vehicles a low-cost surgical strike capability. In combat, the
APKWS system has achieved over a 93 percent success rate when fired
from rotary- and fixed-wing platforms. APKWS laser-guidance kits
are used by four branches of the U.S. military, and are available
to allied nations for ongoing combat operations via Foreign
Military Sales (FMS).
