Technical evaluation of APC chassis

Success during combat on the modern battlefield is determined by numerous conditions. One of those conditions is a quich and unexpected (for the red force) transport of troops. Modern APCs (armoured personnel carrier) have similar terrain capability. Level of APCs adjustment to movement in a hard terrain conditions is the function of numerous indicators of its construction including e.g. correction of, usually specific, conditions for technical solutions of suspension or engine. It is possible to acquire global numericał indicator of APC utility evaluation, basing on e.g. evaluation of the terrain mobility. Such indicator is the objective way to estimate the level of fulfilling the technical specification of subject subgroup for tactical - technical specification by the APC construction. In the article is presented the proposal of methodical utility evaluation for modern APC chassis, which is based on account of proposed numerical indicators. Using the set indicators, we've provided comparison of directed and global evaluation of AMY Patria, towards other modern APCs. In the paper formulas of these indicators are described. The results of evaluation are presented on charts as well ensample types of terrain trials are shown on pictures.
