[Vehicle] Pinzgauer [WIP]

[anglomanii]

you have to consider what the actual role of this vehicle is being to be employed in, AFAIK this is a a LRPV type, that value high situational awareness and fire power to the protection of armor. i cant see this kind of vehicle being used in a conventional manner, and knowing how unconventional the kiwi's are, it's got to be way out there. there not called the borrower's for nothing.

[sylent/shooter]

hahahaha thats not the kind of ATv i was referring to but okay XD

[Gunner_downer]

What do you mean by a conventional manner?

Our forces equip it with weaponry and use it in Afghanistan. I saw a picture of our SAS using it there, can't seem to find it again. I don't see what's so unconventional about it.

I re-jigged the roll cage



Also optimized it and got the tri count down to 4286

my apologies, i cant possibly understand why i would say such a thing?

[Redamare]

that thing is realy cool .. does it have any armor plating for the passangers though?? it seems a bit open like the GBR land rover . . . good work

Redamare, is bumping threads your new favorite sport ? It's not the first thread you've revived this week...

Just have to ask... What's the problem with that apart from infame from cool internetz children?

[Hauteclocque]

The problem is that each time I think someone has made progress on a vehicle/texture/etc...but the only thing I see is a useless post.

Last warning Redamare, next time you'll most likely be infracted.

[HangMan_]

What is wrong with someone asking something about a vehicle?

Nothing. However we do have an issue with people like Redamare who post for the sake of posting. This is the last i want to hear on this topic in this thread, any further posts regarding it will be deleted.

Get back on topic.

[Truism]

So wait out, is it used like an LRPV, like a light utility vehicle or in a roll analogous to what other countries use PMVs for?

[HangMan_]

At the moment its used as an LRPV for the NZSAS, but is beginning to phase out our NZDF Landrovers. Some units are currently using it as transport and a light weapons platform.

[ZondaX15]

So will it be like the British Land Rover and have one unarmed version with six seats and another with a .50 and a .30?

[Killtoy]

I hope these help out. Sorry the image quality is so bad. I think have higher-res copies somewhere, and if I find them I'll post them for you.

[Rudd]

I think thats a coyote, modified version of the jackal that carries extra supplies, not a pinz.

edit, I'm not sure now tbh

[Killtoy]

No... it's a weapon carrier variant of the LOV:

NZ Army - Our Equipment - LOV

These were not being used by a regular unit.

One more image I dug up...

If you read the linked page, you'd know the LOV is a Pinzgauer.
