Nearly 200 Requirements
According to a report by state-run media outlet Sargs.lv, the Latvian military presented nearly 200 requirements for the development of the VR-1 FOX vehicle.
The requirements were divided into three categories: use, construction, and modularity.
Joint Headquarters Security Department specialist Aivars Ronis explained that the modularity requirement was to ensure the vehicle can be converted into a jeep or pickup truck for greater flexibility.
The VR-1 FOX must also be able to carry a large payload and military personnel.
Another consideration for the armed forces was the climate and geography of Latvia when designing the vehicle.
It is also imperative that the light military vehicle is easy to use and maintain.
“While the company is interested in testing the safety, endurance, and fitness for different weather conditions and other parameters, the National Armed Forces are more interested in the vehicle overcoming different obstacles in different conditions – sand, snow, dirt,” Ronis revealed.
Paņem vīziju, pieredzi, pievieno 6 jaunus Latviešu inžinierus, iejauc modernas iekārtas, 2 gadus krati un sanāk Foksijs. Pilnībā funkcionāls prototips. Tūkstošiem unikālu detaļu rasējumus. Tīrs Latvijas produkts (izņemot dzinēju, ātrumkārbu, reduktorus). Latvija VAR! #Vāģiracing https://t.co/tePQY6NYZd pic.twitter.com/u9fV7H95tJ
