The vehicle was developed based on TAM 150 T7 vehicle chassis elements and fitting of armored hull. Vehicle can transport section of 6-8 military police who can fire small arms from the with permanent crew comprising commander and weapons operator who can fire cal. 7.62mm machine gun M86 with electric trigger from partially armored cupola M86. Vehicle also mounts smoke pot dispenser and folding grill used to subdue riots. Hull armor provides ballistic protection from 7.62 mm AP round fired from distances of more than 100 m.

When designing the concept of the vehicle, special emphasis was placed on achievement of high mobility, system of armor protection, armament system, ability to transport 10 infantrymen who should be able to quickly embark or evacuate the vehicle using tail gate.

When designing the concept of vehicle’s propulsion and suspension, after careful study and modeling of feasible technical solutions, it was decided to adopt 8x8 drive, featuring live axles and springs which would provide high level of protection from effects of antitank mines, at the same time ensuring high off-road mobility.

During cross-country testing, the vehicle demonstrated very high off-road mobility in varying terrain and weather conditions, very high ability to negotiate gradients, trenches and, in particular, side slopes. Superior slope negotiating ability is especially important when vehicle’s high center of gravity is taken into account, designed so in order to provide better mine protection.

High level of armor protection was achieved by adopting of steel armor hull that, in its basic version, includes ballistic glass panes and provides protection that meets STANAG 4569, level III+ (protection against 12.7x107 mm B-32 API round fired from 100 m) at front and level II at the sides and rear. By fitting add-on armor of laminated composite structure, attached on basic armor, vehicle ballistic protection is rated level V at front and level IV at all other sides. Armored hull design allows quick fitting and replacement of add-on armor sections by vehicle crew, which, when fitted, do not degrade basic functions of the vehicle

Optionally, fitting of reactive explosive armor attached to add-on armor will provide effective protection against infantry hand launchers of RPG-7 type which nowadays represent main threat in already mentioned type of warfare. Hull bottom is V-shaped that, in addition to high ground clearance and solid drive train, ensures very high level of protection from antitank mine and IED, according to level IIIa (resistant against blasts of AT mine or IED containing 6kg of HE occurring under vehicle wheels and floor)

Vehicle armament system is situated in the area between driver’s and commander’s compartment and area that accommodates embarked troops. Concept of the vehicle allows incorporation of a variety of turrets, cupolas and weapon stations, depending on main application of the vehicle and planned budget of the user.

Simplest armament consists of partially armored modular cupola M06 with detachable mounts, able to support the following weapon alternatives: - machine gun cal. 7.62 x 54 mm M86 with electric trigger, - machine gun cal.. 12.7 x 108 mm, - automatic grenade launcher cal. 30 mm. - cannon M55 (HS 804) cal. 20 x 110 mm Existing functional model, as illustrated, mounts light-

weight cupola LK08 armed with cannon cal. 20 x 110 mm M55 (HS804), with belt feeding, and machine gun cal. 7.62 x 54 mm M86.

The concept permits installation of different weapon stations equipped with optoelectronic fire control system and an integrated weapons system that may consists of a combination the following weapon alternatives: Cannon cal. 20 mm M55 Cannon cal. 30 mm M86 Wire-guided AT missile system Malutka 2 with twin launcher Machine gun cal. 7.62 mm M86 Machine gun cal. 12. 7 mm M87 Automatic grenade launcher cal. 30 mm M93

All versions of the turret, cupola or weapon stations – in addition to listed weapon alternatives – are equipped with 4 dispensers of smoke charges. Vehicle crew consists of three permanent members – commander, driver and weapons operator – plus embarked section of 10 soldiers – infantrymen, military police, antiterrorist squad, special unit, police or gendarmerie unit, etc. Folding seats are attached to vehicle roof providing easier crew circulation and added crew protection against effects of blasts under the vehicle. Embarked section of 10 troops is transported at rear of the vehicle, sitting on folding, ergonomically shaped seats attached to vehicle roof, five men at each side sitting back-to-back and facing the sides of the vehicle, able to observe terrain through portholes of ballistic glass and to fire personal weapons – assault rifles, light machine guns or grenade launchers cal. 40 mm – through firing ports situated below lookout ports. The space available permits easy embarking, evacuation and comfortable accommodation of soldiers wearing full ballistic protection including protective vests with ballistic plates and tactical vests with ammunition and other gear. Space between driver’s and commander’s compartment and embarked crew area, left and right from turret basket i.e. from weapon operator’s station, serves as storage bay for a range of infantry weapons, antitank hand launchers, portable antitank wire guided missile systems, portable air defense missile launchers, etc. The crew enter and exit the vehicle through tailgate which is also provided with portholes and firing ports and enables embarking or disembarking of complete crew in about 10 seconds including their taking of seats. There are also two side doors, plus two emergency roof hatches. Observations made by the user during demonstration of the vehicle noted that armored vehicle LAZAR provides comfortable transport, excellent visibility, quick and easy driver training, unhindered and effective use of personal weapons, significant fire support provided by disembarked section using the complement of weapons carried on board, unhindered and rapid disembarking and embarking and, an important impression, feeling of security and domination in the battlefield. Basic concept of the vehicle represents the foundation for building up its different versions – command vehicle, medical evacuation, logistic support (cargo) vehicle, engineering /recovery vehicle, mine clearing vehicle, as well as platform for selfpropelled mortar cal. 120mm, self-propelled artillery piece cal. 122/155mm, artillery, rocket or hybrid (artillery/rocket) or air defense system, etc.

Special equipment (on customers’ request) • Air-conditioning employing compressor split system, • VHF radio set of 15W output, with UMR • Filtering-ventilating system creating overpressure within the hull, air-filtering system including CBR protection • Command information system (KIS) with GPS based navigation • Panoramic optoelectronic reconnaissance- observation station, stabilized in two planes, fitted with CCD TV camera, thermal imaging camera and laser rangefinder

Command information system (KIS) is a hardware/software device that provides support in mission planning and preparing to unit commanding officers, their decision making, organization, preparing of reports, issuing of orders, locating of target positions and similar activities related to combat activities. ..................99.236.221.124 (talk) 09:39, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
