Description
The Type16 Maneuver Combat Vehicle was developed as a wheeled fighting vehicle with the mobility, firepower, protection, and command and control functions necessary for short deployment and leading combat missions in island combat and guerrilla response, and was equipped in 2016.
The main gun is a JSW modified version of the British 105mm L7 gun with reduced recoil.With its 570 hp 4VA engine, it can reach a top speed of 100 km/h. Its light weight of 26 tons allows it to be transported by air on a C-2 transport plane.
This vehicle was built in Prototype Phase II(2010-2011), and the one proposed here is a combination of Hull #2 and Turret #2(manned).
This prototype is the only Type16 prototype with a rear engine arrangement
The gunner’s sights and the commander’s sights are from a Type10 tank.
There is very little information on this vehicle, so I am referring to other Type16.
