Thread: on the replacement for the perenties

antenna mounts maybe?

for those interested (sorry bout the roughness of the write overs)




Looks like the gardening tools go on the roof... should make camming up great fun along with all the extra glass and the higmount reflective indicators....

fitted with 2 generic AMU mounts for comms gear or all other stuff that mounts on the amu base pattern (EW gear/IFF/EMINT shield type stuff)

the rear lift points look better positioned than the landie ones but I cant see the front ones

and it looks like its made to be recovered with a front placed AUX electrical connector for hooking up the standard 12 pin nato socket.

Im pretty sure that it wont get issued out with a highlift and the winch fit up will be interesting to see.

OH its also not ADR compliant with the exhaust coming out where it does.

Whats the bet the cost of the BFG AT goes up from this point on.

hmmm.........no flat sections on which to park a mug of tea at smoko

Thanks Dave.

One more question to someone: I'm assuming the spoked rims are steel and not alloy's


I like the way they've put the BFG A/T's with the white lettering to the inside.

Notice the white lettering on the inside of the tyres, these put the pose factor the wrong way around, can't quite make out the brand Allterrain T/A???

the landrover as the miltary has known was airportable. they fitted exactly into the fuselage of the caribou. one landrover/trailer and troops were a perfect load for the caribou. with the demise of the caribou and introduction of new a/c that can carry a complete rifle company and still land in the same airfields its no wonder that a complete revamp of vehicles is happening.....its called progress and it was really necessary.

Do they come with a laptop, so that when one has electronic problems, one of the crew can fix it or do you have to call Merc for help. Help help we are getting our arses shot at here and the *^%$ing ecu says call you nearest dealer.. The Rovers are low tech, run on any old jungle jucie if they have to and could be patched up by most people in the field.

I personally think the G-Wagen is a nice looking vehicle. Never had anything to do with them before so don't know anything about them, but still nice looking, especially with the cut and flared guards and the chunky tyres.
