Notes:
This is an XA-188 APC fitted with a Kvaerner-Eureka Armored Launcher
Turret mounting a 4-tube TOW II ATGM launcher.
In this role, the passenger compartment is taken up with the turret, the
crew, and ammunition for the launchers. The XA-188 Tank Destroyer has a
246-horsepower Valmet 611 diesel engine with an automatic transmission.
There are two rear doors each with a firing port, and four BMP-style
firing ports in each side. There is
a large hatch on the rear deck which is used to reload the missile launchers.
At the front, opposite the driver on the right, is the commander’s
position; he has a pintle machinegun mount. The vehicle has a GPS navigation
system with a mapping module.
Patria also
shopped around a version of this concept based on the upgraded XA-203 APC, with
a more powerful 295-horsepower Valmet engine to move the upgraded armor suite.
This version has firing ports only in the rear doors, but is otherwise
similar to its XA-188 counterpart.
