Tatra PRAM/M. This is a first example of the newest Tatra FORCE of 3rd generation in service of the Czech Armed Forces. It utilizes new Tatra Defence armored cabin.
PRAM/M 8x8 are for support of Titus 6x6 KOVVŠ (staff-command vehicles).

@AdeptusArkain Aren't shot straps basically nonexistent with modern APFSDS because they're more likely to shatter than to deflect?
English
The goal is so minimize shot traps, not enhance them to super sized.

@Danny_elMayor It would be nonsensical not to procure one of these for the UKP tender (I'm for mix of TADEAS 4x4 and 6x6). But I'm sure VOP CZ will try to pull some strings in the MOD.
English
🇵🇱🇨🇿 Given recent massive Polish procurements through SAFE funding, there is also positive aspect when it comes to Czech Defence industry.
Hundreds of Waran 4x4 and Heron 6x6 vehicles = license versions of EA Patriot II and TDV Tadeas. Tatra chassis and engines, EA and TDV hulls

@Danny_elMayor @CzDefence In the video you can see that one of the trucks has a paper with PRAM 3 written on it.
Does that mean the 2nd gen PRAM-L carrier is getting replaced? Because I thought they are supposed to be replaced in the future by a self-propelled mortar (like Patria NEMO)
English
In recent report that was done by @CzDefence there can be seen Tatra Force of 3rd generation with brand new TD armored cabins.
This cabin is (unlike previous KAPA utilized by Tatra Force of 2nd gen) developed by Tatra Defence and can reach Stanag Level 3 protection.

Tatra 815-7 8x8 PRAM-L. Vz.82 120mm mortar carrier. Can be also used as ammunition supply vehicle.
English
@Danny_elMayor Each battery has three MR launchers (8x Python-5 MR or Derby-MR) and one SR launchers (4x Python-5 or Derby).
What's the reason for including the SR launchers when they have less missiles and the missiles can't have added boosters for increased range?
English
Footage of new SPYDER Ground Based Air Defence system that is currently undergoing military trials before its fielding as part of the 25th Air Defence Missile Regiment, Czech Air Force.
This is substantial boost to Czech ground AD, with 4 batteries ordered, 16 MFU's in total.
English
@Danny_elMayor Can any CV90 mount dozer/mine roller or just engineering version can?
There are some mounting points but I'm not sure if they aren't just for attaching tow hooks.
English
Slovak company EVPÚ and Czech company EVPÚ Defence are actively working on CV90 project for both Czech&Slovak military 🇨🇿🤝🇸🇰
CMS-1 commander sight, Lawarec laser (and for CZ also radar) warning systems and RCWS for 🇨🇿 vehicles.
EVPÚ also developed brand new CV90 dozer blade

@ICHIWA_3 @SallTheSmug @transm1das B-52s were seen loaded only with JDAMs flying out of RAF Fairford.
Also US managed to fly atleast two KC-130 400km deep into Iran and setup a FARP site.
English
@SallTheSmug @transm1das B-52 standoff JASSM strikes are not as signaling of "total air superiority" as you think it is. I will agree that the US has handled Iran a lot better than Russia handled Ukraine, but I'd argue neither have achieved total air superiority yet.
English
"hey f-35" and it struggles to establish air superiority over iran 😭😭😭😭
ohio didy totenham🤣🤣🤣@Reddit_Spurs
"hey su-57" and it struggles to establish air superiority over ukraine😭😭😭😭

@stoa1984 It says here it can return home if it doesn't find a target.
Also in one of the promotional videos you can see it landing.

What happens to the rest of the interceptors? Retrieved?
Wild Hornets@wilendhornets
Explosive takedown by a Wild Hornets STING 💥 Several interceptors were chasing the Shahed at once, but only one got the hit — operated by the Hunter crew of the 208th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade.
English
@Danny_elMayor Looks interesting although I don't really like the idea of buying anything from Turkey (Maybe even Israel/USA).
If we can buy it from European country (SA-35mm, Tridon, Rapidfire, Skyranger).
English
Tatra Force 3rd generation and Turkish Korkut C-UAS/VSHORAD air defence system, both mobile and static option available.
English
@Y192814512 @Boenau Yeah imagine that.
They're actually periscopes but you can look down the bottom of the turret.
You can even open the hatch and stick out you head giving you even better visibility.
English
@Boenau Imagine thinking an M1 abrams has like a front facing window and you can just look down the bottom of the turret.
English
@Danny_elMayor One thing it really lacks is a commanders RCWS, either GLADIUS 12 or GLADIUS TWIN placed instead of the commanders sight would really improve the drone hunting capabilities
Preferably placed on a similar elevating mast as the CMS-1 so it doesn't get blocked by the APS launchers
English
Screenshots from the presentation video. Compared to the setup of this vehicle during its first demo, now it has C-UAS jammers integrated into the turret as well.
CV9030CZ is a decently optimized IFV build upon resilient and proven vehicle with quite a few tricks up its sleeve.
Daniel of Bohemia@Danny_elMayor
CV9030CZ 🇨🇿 (Mk.IV) during testing by Czech mechanized infantry in Sweden. Local assembly is about to begin and deliveries of first vehicles are planned for this year. 246 vehicles, 190 of them in IFV config were ordered. Crucial project of Land Forces modernization

@trip_to_valkiri As others have said it not Strichtarn but Czechoslovak Vz.60 "Jehličí " (needles).
As you can see it's more greener than the German Strichtarn.
Interestingly it also features a unique camouflage pattern "only" visible in infra-red spectrum to mask the soldier from night vision.

@praisethesteph @excaliburarmycz @CSG_HOLDING Good news,
any tip who it could be? Maybe Indonesia?
Hopefully UKP will continue even under this shitshow of a government. Because current engineering battalion vehicles are really in a bad shape ...
English
🇨🇿#Czechia: Excalibur Army (@excaliburarmycz), part of the Czechoslovak Group (@CSG_HOLDING), has won a contract to supply more than 100 Patriot II 4x4 vehicles, based on the Tatra Force 4x4 chassis, in various versions to a customer in Southeast Asia.
The contract covers a wide range of configurations, from mortar vehicles, command vehicles, and APCs to wheeled infantry fighting vehicles and armored ambulance versions for medical evacuation.
The total value of the contract exceeds $300 million. Deliveries are to be completed within three years.
English
@Jonatha18209294 @thinkdefence Most of these are the same size/little bigger than the simple truck mounted howitzer, while having much faster setup time and rate of fire, the crew is also protected the whole time inside the armored cabin making it more survivable than the totally exposed crew.
English
@thinkdefence This is way too big, impossible to hide, and must always carry its ammo onboard
English
Ro'em (Thundermaker) 155 mm Self Propelled Gun from Elbit. It has a design ROF of eight rounds per minute. Truck mounted SPH designs seem increasingly common, why is that?
English
@praisethesteph @ColtCZGroup So ~$300 per piece? That's dirt cheap.
Is it known what equipment they're buying for it (sights, holsters, lights)
English
#Czechia/#Germany 🇨🇿🇩🇪:
