The RG34 features a specially designed, multi-link hydro-pneumatic suspension mounted on a very rigid structure.
This ensures excellent off-road performance and clearance over rough terrain.
The RG34’s large diameter wheels and long suspension travel give it a superb off-road capability, enabling it to drive over or through obstacles. While it presents a low silhouette, the RG34 affords occupants an excellent field of vision and comfortable interior, easing fatigue on long patrols.
Its powerful intercooled turbo-diesel engine and 5-speed automatic gearbox ensures high performance and excellent fuel economy. When fitted with a long-range fuel tank, the RG34 can cover distances up to 1,000 km.
At the heart of the RG34 design is its welded monocoque hull. This is manufactured from high quality ballistic steel. It protects the occupants against all-round direct fire, airburst fragments, as well as Armour-Piercing (AP) and Anti-Tank (AT) mines.
Like all other RG family members, the RG34 was conceived to provide reliability and easy repair.
Central to the vehicle’s engineering concept is its incorporation of proven, reliable and widely available Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) components.
The RG34 is a permanent 4x4, designed with inherent upgrade potential to offer unrivalled versatility through payload capacity. The vehicle can be fitted with a number of defence suites, surveillance equipment and weapon systems, allowing it to be configured to operate in today’s theatres, which vary in terms of technological and threat sophistication. The high power-to-weight ratio and advanced suspension system provide the stable platform for integrating a variety of weapon stations for various combat roles.
