Description
The TIGR combines high-mobility and fast-speed performance. Its independent torsion bar suspension allows the vehicle to travel at the highest possible speed in cross-country without trading off comfort of the crew and troops inside. The vehicle is powered by a Russian turbocharged intercooled diesel developing 215 hp. It features a 5-speed manual transmission incorporating a two-speed transfer case complete with an inter-axle differential lock and hub reduction. The vehicle is equipped with a controlled slip differential. It is cleared for operation on all types of roads and terrain towing a trailer that weights up to 2,500 kg.
The armor withstands hits of 7.62mm heat-strengthened steel core bullets fired from the AKM assault rifle at 10 m, which is equivalent to STANAG 4569 Level 2.
