"Goanna" has proven solutions for 60mm, 81mm and 120mm mortar variants mounted on the flatbed rear cab. Mortar variants carry 140+ rounds for the 81mm, and 80-100 rounds for 120mm configurations. Protection "Goanna" delivers greater operational flexibility and security to a landing force. Its scalable armour can be fitted on ship or in the field. Similarly, its superior agility to other wheeled vehicles or AFVs provide greater route selection options, thus increasing protection levels exponentially. At the basic level, Goannas crew members are protected against small AP-mines. Protection levels can be enhanced with the addition of modular / scalable protection kits to protect against mine / IED threats, ballistic / fragment threats as well as CE-threats such as RPG. Standard protection systems include: High strength steel hull Mine blast attenuating seats Four point seat belts Available options include: Up to 6 kg TNT Defensive Aides Suite (DAS) Applique armour Bar or mesh armour Automatic /manual fire suppression V-Shaped Hull Very low ground pressure Foot rests
Flexibility "Goanna" variants and systems have been developed in close co-operation with our customers.
