 Ratel 20 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ratel is relatively lightly armored, to preserve mobility, weapons space, and range; the vehicle is well-protected against bullets, artillery shell splinters, rocket-propelled grenades, and small-caliber cannon, such as the Warsaw Pact 23mm AA guns, which were frequently used in ground-fire roles in Angola and Namibia, but is vulnerable to heavier guns or guided missiles.
The Ratel's cross-country performance is very good--certainly adequate for the generally rolling and arid terrain it usually operates in-- and also served as the basis for the G-6 self-propelled gun.
In fact, the Ratel was the first wheeled IFV to enter military service, and is generally regarded as an influential design; a number of other countries have since produced vehicles similar to the Ratel, including the Belgian SIBMAS--which is all but a direct copy-- and a number of South American designs.
