That seems a dubious claim to me. I know that the BBC source [1] backs it up but I'd like to see further verification - I suspect the reporter misunderstood something he was told. Dino246 ( talk) 16:26, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
Can someone update with deployment of "Narys" by Australian Forces in Afghanistan http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,24918566-662,00.html -- Frmby988 ( talk) 02:21, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
Is it really necessary to list every reported incident in this vehicle? Is it not sufficient to say that there have been numerous casualties in Jackals and include the references? This section is beginning to take the form of a tribute to soldiers lost in Jackals and I'm not sure that this is appropriate here. Dino246 ( talk) 06:44, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
What about maybe saying something about other users of the models? Flosssock1 ( talk) 22:53, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Suggest renaming article from Jackal to High Mobility Transporter.
Jackal is the name given to the variant for British Army around 2007. It is the HMT 400. This was developed for the British SAS under Project Minacity with a contract awarded in 2001. US Delta Force bought designated Marauders. Then British Army order. Later, Australian and Danish special forces bought the new variant HMT Extenda (configurable between 4x4 and 6x6). Australians placed a further order to bring fleet to 120 and Norwegian special forces purchased.
This article is solely British Army based when it is operated by others. Other users and history can be added if name is changed. -- Melbguy05 ( talk) 19:35, 11 August 2016 (UTC)
It is not "a different non-British vehicle". It is the same vehicle. Supacat website - HMT 400 (named the ‘Jackal’ by our UK customer) / HMT 600 (named the ‘Coyote’ by our UK customer). -- Melbguy05 ( talk) 10:05, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
There is already some information here Supacat HMT. It is a question of whether to create a new article titled High Mobility Transporter or rename this one. -- Melbguy05 ( talk) 10:28, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

"Jackal" is not a "family of vehicles" like the opening paragraph states. "Jackal" is just one vehicle which is in service with the British Army in two variations. The family is the High Mobility Transporter (HMT) which includes the HMT 400 (Jackal), HMT 600 (Coyote) and HMT Extenda. The article also mentions Coyote and Extenda, neither of which are "Jackals", and mentions the vehicles in service with other countries, despite those vehicles not being known as "Jackals" by them.
I propose we move the page to 'High Mobility Transporter' (or similiar) and structure the article around the three main versions, plus their variants, and write about the family beyond just the British Army. It's a lot more accurate than the mish-mashed state the article is currently in. TheArmchairSoldier ( talk) 19:32, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
