Role

The ASLAV is used mainly for convoy escorts, rear security protection, e.g. protecting bridges and airfields, and offensive tasks like quick attacks and raids. Its excellent mobility is enhanced by solid-core tyres within each of the 8 inflated tyres. This allows it to function even with 8 punctures.

Aslav Gun

25mm Bushmaster cannon

The main weapon on the ASLAV is a chain driven, electrically powered gun. It is capable of firing at 200 rounds per minute, accurate at ranges up to 3km. Unlike most automatic firearms, it uses an electric motor rather than gas or recoil to actuate its firing system, giving it much better reliability than comparable systems.
