The newest ZA-SpN "Titan" special-purpose armored vehicle was demonstrated for the first time at the Victory Parade in Moscow. The vehicle, developed in Naberezhnye Chelny, is designed to perform combat missions in the interests of special forces units.
The "Titan" was created on the basis of the proven "Typhoon-VDV" platform, but has been seriously redesigned. The armored vehicle received an improved suspension, a higher level of protection, a reinforced body, as well as a V-shaped bottom, which increases resistance to explosions.
The curb weight of the vehicle is 13.6 tons, the gross weight is 15 tons, and the carrying capacity reaches 1420 kg. At the same time, the "Titan" is capable of reaching speeds of up to 100 km/h and overcoming fords up to 1.75 m deep.
The parade showed a version with a machine gun, but it is also possible to install a Kornet ATGM or a turret with a 12.7-mm Kord machine gun. A 120-mm mortar can be attached to the rear of the armored vehicle.
The internal compartment is designed to transport up to five soldiers with equipment, and the body allows mounting a Kornet ATGM or additional weapons for specific operational tasks.
High-strength tires have become a special feature of the vehicle; the "Titan" will be able to continue moving at speeds of up to 50 km/h even when damaged by bullets or an explosion. The engine is a diesel, turbocharged, with a capacity of 350 hp, paired with a two-stage "transfer case" and a mechanical transmission.
