Armoured / armored vehicles, turrets and remote weapon stations
This group brings together eleven line items: complete armoured vehicles and the turrets and remote weapon stations fitted to them. The wheeled vehicles are the LAZAR III P and LAZANSKI fighting vehicles and the BOV M11 and MILOSH 4×4 multi-role vehicles. The tracked unmanned ground vehicles are MALI MILOŠ V1, MALI MILOŠ V2 and MALI MILOS ULTRALIGHT. The weapon stations and turrets are the 20 mm RCWS 20/3 and KERBER, the 30 mm 32V01 unmanned turret and the 30 mm MB2-04 fighting compartment. Each station or turret states its armament by calibre and gun designation; vehicles add dimensions, mass and, where documented, protection level and fitted armament.
Remote controlled weapon station with a three-barrel 20 mm gun for destroying and disabling ground targets and seaborne targets at up to 2000 m and airborne targets such as slow low-flying aircraft, helicopters, drones and cruise missiles at up to 1500 m.
A vehicle-mounted remote weapon station built around a triple-barrel 20 mm gun with drum feeding, operated from an in-vehicle console with joystick and ballistic computer, and served by a sensor unit with day channel, thermal imaging camera and laser range finder.
Vehicle fighting compartment designed to engage hostile manpower, soft-skin materiel and low aerial targets, using a biplane electromechanical armament stabiliser for firing on the move and storing the entire ammunition load inside the armoured space of the vehicle.
Armament

How armoured vehicles and weapon stations are specified in tender documents
For a vehicle, a tender annex states the wheel or track configuration, combat or gross weight, length, width and height, engine power, maximum speed, fording depth and the ballistic and mine protection level, usually as a STANAG 4569 level. For a turret or remote weapon station it states the gun designation and calibre, coaxial weapons, ammunition carried, elevation and traverse limits, sighting fit and station weight. The entries here carry those figures as documented for each item.
Designation families and what varies by model
Vehicle sheets range from the 250 kg MALI MILOS ULTRALIGHT to the LAZANSKI at 26 to 36 t gross weight; BOV M11 is at about 10.8 t and LAZAR III P at 24 to 26 t combat weight. Protection is stated as STANAG 4569 Level I to II for BOV M11 and Level 4a/4b mine protection for LAZANSKI. RCWS 20/3 and KERBER share the three-barrel 20 mm M55 gun with 60-round drums; 32V01 and MB2-04 are built around the 30 mm 2A42 gun with a 7.62 mm machine gun.
Questions about this equipment
Which items are complete vehicles and which are stations?
LAZAR III P, LAZANSKI, BOV M11 and MILOSH are wheeled armoured vehicles, and MALI MILOŠ V1, MALI MILOŠ V2 and MALI MILOS ULTRALIGHT are tracked unmanned ground vehicles. RCWS 20/3, KERBER, 32V01 and MB2-04 are turrets or remote weapon stations documented as modules for fitting to a carrier vehicle.
What protection levels are documented?
Protection is stated only where the source gives it: BOV M11 at STANAG 4569 Level II front and Level I all round, rising to Level III and II with add-on armour; LAZANSKI at Level 4 ballistic and Level 4a/4b mine protection; MALI MILOŠ V1 with steel armour against small arms fire. Other entries list no protection level.
