Technical Characteristics
All versions of the Lynx CS/VP16B share the same architecture. The front part of the hull is designed for an open double cockpit, followed by the engine compartment. Below the cabin are the transmission units that provide all-wheel drive. The rear compartment is configured for the installation of various equipment, which can be adapted to transport passengers, cargo, or mount artillery systems.
The Lynx family is equipped with an engine of approximately 100 hp, with three-axle drive provided by a mechanical transmission. The individual wheel suspension ensures smooth and efficient driving on various terrains. However, the hull design and small wheel diameter may limit some mobility capabilities of the vehicle.
