| Source measurement | Armor plates provide protection from 7.62 mm armor-piercing bullets shot from near distance and artillery shell fragments.[source]Didgori Medevac · Armor; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The max. speed on paved roads is 120–140 km/h and reduced to 80 km/h on terrain. Acceleration from 0–100 km/h is achieved in 22 seconds. The cruising range at 60 km/h is 500 km. Each unit has at least one 20 L fuel can in reserve. The vehicle can operate at temperatures ranging from -32 °C to +55 °C and remains unaffected by heavy meteorological conditions. The wheels consist of Hutchinson 12r20 mpt80 type tyres which have a run flat capability of 50 km at 50 km/h.[source]Didgori Medevac · Specifications and mobility; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The Didgori has 400mm ground clearance and is able to climb slopes at a 60% gradient and drive sideways along a slope at a 40% gradient. The vehicle base version is not amphibious - although such a variant is an option, but can move in up to 1m deep water.[source]Didgori Medevac · Specifications and mobility; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage On August 27, 2014 Georgia participated with a MedEvac prototype in a tender for Armoured Personnel Carriers hosted by the Ministry of Defence of Saudi Arabia. The tests were carried out mostly in the Arabian desert but also urban areas and included movement on different altitudes - mountains, various types of terrain and gradients, weather conditions, under extreme stress and maximum weight burden at top speed. The trials culminated in a 40 km simulated fully loaded evacuation at max.speed.[source]Didgori Medevac · Specifications and mobility / Saudi Arabia trials; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage | — |
