Thanks for corrections.Any more? -
wait SOF will stomp this webby
-
last two pics are BV206...from Sweden....
I cant recognise the pic with two open hatches.... -
#7 looks like a recovery vehicle of sorts.
I thought the BV206 were on their way out...hmm.. -
I think the recovery vehicle is the CET(combat engineer tractor) It should have a shovel in front of the vehicle but not shown on the pic.
-
the first pic should be the TPQ-36 artillery locating radar..
the second one should be the ARTHUR, another artillery locating radar. -

Arthur's Fast And Deadly
The radar, mounted on a BV-206 vehicle, detect shells 40km awayTHE Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has acquired battlefield radars called Arthur
to help it detect enemy artillery shells, mortar bombs and rockets.
The Swedish-made radar's name stands for ARTillery HUnting Radar.
The new radars - about the size of a ping pong table - were put into
operation early last year. One radar will go on show for the first time at this
weekend's Army Open House at the Safti Military Institute in Jurong.
Arthur is mounted on top of a BV-206 all-terrain tracked vehicle for greater
mobility. It joins existing weapon locating radars like the United States-made
Firefinders and thus reinforces the combat capability of the 24th Battalion
Singapore Artillery (24 SA) in finding targets for the Army's big guns.
The new radars can also tell SAF gunners if their shells are on target and
advise them to adjust their firing, if necessary.
Weapons engineers at the Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA) have
made improvements to the radar system, like adding air-conditioning to the
operator's cabin under the radar.
Apart from creature comforts, DSTA division manager Teo Chee Wah said
efforts were made 'to integrate the Arthur system into the SAF's
sensor-to-shooter network' so that gunners can find, fix and finish targets
rapidly.
Captain Patrick Soh, a radar commander with 24 SA, said yesterday that
Arthur can go into action with a crew of 11 gunners in five minutes.
In comparison, it takes 18 gunners some 30 minutes to set up the unit's
older Firefinder radars. What is more, three separate vehicles support each
Firefinder radar, which is towed behind a truck.
Also, the Arthur can detect shells or rockets some 40km away - the distance
from Changi to Tuas.
Arthur will force any enemy mobile artillery system that uses
'shoot-and-scoot' tactics, to 'redeploy constantly so that they become
ineffective', added Capt Soh. -

Some capabilities of the Igla. Not sure whether its the same version as those purchased by the SAF. -

It's the Swedish made BV-206. It should be either cargo or POL version. As, ST is well known for its "Product Transfer" technology. This vehicle is used as the drawing board model for our current Bronco. Main dfferences are engines changed from Mercedes to Caterpillar for better horsepower output and framework changed from the lighter poly fibre laminates to steel plates for better protection.
