On the basis of the concern “Military Industrial Company”, the Tigr armored car is being improved. Officially, at the beginning of operation, he will receive in the title the number "2" in the name.
"Tiger-2" will differ significantly in its reliability and security from its predecessor. In particular, an engine with a volume of 6.7 liters will be put on it (the predecessor had 5.9 liters). In addition, it will replace the gearbox, and will be replaced by automatic mechanics.
The developers paid special attention to the side effects of the operation of the "Tiger" in Syria. Therefore, the new armored car will become much heavier due to the fact that the hull armor becomes thicker, and mine protection will be enhanced.
As noted earlier, the work on Tigrom-2 should have been completed as planned at the end of this year. However, the Ministry of Defense of Russia sent an updated technical project to the concern. What it says is still unknown. There is, however, a wish that the "Tigers" going to the Syrian Arab Republic would have air conditioning.
According to the new introductory, "Tigra" should be upgraded before the end of spring 2019.
