Topic: Wiesel1 IFV


  
  wiesel1 ifv - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
The Wiesel IFV is a light airtransportable infantry fighting vehicle, or more accurately a lightly-armoured weapons carrier.
So the fighting vehicle was finally introduced as new weapon system for the Bundeswehr in 1990 and named "Wiesel" (weasel) because of its small size and agility.
Various versions of the Wiesel IFV exist, there are different weapon configurations which can be mounted on the top.

 ARMORED WARFARE: Airborne Tank Returns from the Dead [Archive] - Military Photos
The BMD was/is an interesting airborne IFV concept, but probably don't have much better crew ergonomics than the BMP.
Note that the Russian airborne IFV's aren't even armored for 7.62mmN AP all over as well.
The Shillaghlagh missile was a huge failure, as was the French 142mm equivelent, but the Soviets made a success of their system.

 In defence Biped Combat Walkers (Mecha, Gears, etc...) in potential RW use. - SpaceBattles.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
A mecha, while not intended to be a AFV destroyer, will have some anti tank ability, and will likely be able to take out IFVs on relatively equal terms.
The Mecha can hand every thing else, and can compliment the friendly MBTs much like a IFV does now (only more potential uses), by staying in overwatch from cover and adding its Javalins to the argument with the enemy.
If a mecha would have to face MBTs on open terrain (like the friggin Middle Eastern deserts) it would have to make use of natural depressions, pre made fighting holes, and most important of all, mobil tactics.
