Is SNATCH landrover the same vehicle ? Bukvoed 11:18, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
The snatch 1 armoured land rover is not the same vehicle as the wolf, and is based of the earlier 110 chassis (now in TA use) for the conflicts in northern ireland, although the current versions seen in Iraq use 'canabalised' parts from the current wolf series. The newer, but currently rare, snatch 2 land rover IS based of the wolf chasis entirely. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.73.141.172 ( talk • contribs)
Agree mostly with unsigned above - SNATCH is NOT the same as a Wolf (officially called TUL/TUM(HS)). SNATCH used in Northern Ireland was V8 110 based with heavy duty chassis. SNATCH now in Iraq / Afghanistan have been modified and fitted with aircon (SNATCH 1.5) or refurbished (SNATCH 2) on new heavy duty chassis with 300Tdi engine from Turkish Land Rover licensee Otokar [2]. This was an official upgrade and parts were not 'canabalised', though there is obviously now greater mechanical commonality and there are some 'cosmetic' similarities eg wheels. Either way they are NOT Wolf/TUM(HS) based as this has a unique chassis and axles; only produced for the Wolf project vehicles. Rob
Exactly what IS the WMIK? I can hardly understand what it is from this article. Does the Land Rover Wolf have a true turret like the some Humvees? Is the WMIK manually operated or powered? 4.237.216.189 16:28, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
The MILAN is now removed from official active service with the British military, although the last few rounds were only fired off fairly recently. I'm trying to edit the wording in the WMIK section to reflect that the MILAN used to be mounted all-be-it occasionally, but has since been retired/replaced by the Javelin man portable system. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.72.157.154 ( talk) 10:00, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
