JACKAL 2 and COYOTE TSV
 
Image
 
Jackal 2 is a high mobility weapons platform, used by British Armed Forces in the role of deep battlespace reconnaissance, rapid assault and fire support - roles where mobility, endurance and manoeuvrability are important. The chassis was upgraded over the original Jackal, allowing the vehicle to carry a greater payload and armour, and providing more strength for protection against roadside IED's. 
 
The Coyote TSV (Tactical Support Vehicle), introduced for operations in Afghanistan and entering service in late 2010, is based on a 6x6 derivative of the Jackal, designed by Supacat and manufactured by Babcock in the UK. Coyote shares common design features with the Jackal 2 and provides the same increased levels of protection and mobility. It’s 6x6 configuration offers a higher payload of up to 3,000 kilos and provides a large, flexible load space at the rear of the vehicle. With a crew of 3, two variants are provided - a transport version with 8 passenger seats, or a logistics version with just 2 passenger seats but a larger cargo carrying capacity.
 
Both Jackal and Coyote are armed with a General Purpose Machine Gun for crew protection and can carry either a Heavy Machine Gun or a Grenade Machine Gun on a 360 degree gun-ring as the main weapons system in the fire support role.
