Through such a program of great Greek added value, the coverage of the National Needs, the rebirth of the National Defense Industry and finally the strengthening of the National Economy and the employment of specialized highly trained personnel can be achieved. It will be followed by a series of tests and certifications on the part of the user, the restoration of any observations and then it will be ready for serial production. The next step is the construction of a second prototype, which will have the final configuration which will have been indicated and agreed in collaboration with the user and will incorporate to a maximum extent selected and certified Greek-made subsystems. In addition, it has 2 quadruple 76mm smoke bombers on the roof.ĮODH has completed the design and development phase and proceeded to build a prototype for the necessary testing and certification based on European and NATO standards. Alternatively, a 40mm automatic grenade launcher or a 7.62mm / 5.56mm machine gun can be installed in place of the machine gun. The total weight of the system is 250kg, it has stabilization in 2 axes, night shooting range and ammunition stock of 500 projectiles. The vehicle can be equipped with a Remote Control Armature (RCWS) that can accommodate a heavy 12.2mm M2 machine gun.
The basic version is designed to carry a crew of 8 people.
At the rear the cab can accept loads or various types of weapons systems, sensors and standard cages.Variations with 2, 3 and 4 doors on flat or high ceilings are available.The standard cabin has 5 doors and a flat roof.It offers many possibilities of different configurations based on variations of the basic cabin design, but maintaining a common framework.The vehicle is designed for smooth operation in extreme environments (-23 ° C to +49 ° C).In addition, the cab can be hydraulically raised to the side to provide easy access to the power and transmission unit.The cab is removable, connects to the main vehicle with quick connectors and can be replaced in minimum time.At the top of this rigid vehicle rests a fully protected cabin (shipping capsule), optimized for maximum interior space and flexibility in shipping.The vehicle is based on a heavy-duty, self-propelled barge that was specially designed for explosion resistance, extensively prepared for tough military use.The main aim of the new design is the creation of a basic platform with a maximum gross weight of 12 tons with a payload of 2 tons, easily adaptable to different uses, having high reliability and operational readiness.Īll this at a reasonable cost and without compromising on comfort, safety and ergonomics for the crew and the transport team.
The design team of EODH created a vehicle of high value, which stands out for a multitude of innovations and at the same time incorporates a top level of protection for its class. To meet national and international needs for multi use armored vehicles, it has developed a new vehicle, modular in design and high performance, suitable to cover a wide range of military and police missions, Ptisi reported. The EODH company, based in Lakkoma town in Halkidiki, has been creating since 2003 the active protection of Armored Vehicles as well as with the design of integrated systems, and is now creating a new vehicle called the Hoplite.
