DEFENCE SELECTS ARMORED VEHICLES FOR RECON COMPANIES
Defence Ministry, November 16, 5635: ODERVELD – LEUCHTFEUER has learned from its Defence Ministry sources that Oberkommando Bundeswehr (OKB)’s Ableitung II and Oberkommando Heer (OKH) have selected vehicles for use by the reconnaissance companies which are divisional assets of the ten Heer divisions.
The Laufender Bar is produced by Fuchstal Elektrisch and is a tracked vehicle white the Barenjunges is a lighter wheeled vehicle produced by Bundeskonstruction, one of the Bundesrepublik’s state owned defense industries.
The plan is for OKB’s Ableitung II to replace armored vehicles in reconnaissance companies as the need arises with either Barenjunges or Laufender Bar vehicles. In our two panzer divisions, most will be Laufender Bars with a few Barenjunges where lighter faster vehicles are appropriate. In the eight motorized infantry and mountain divisions, most replacement vehicles in the reconnaissance companies of divisional assets will be Barenjunges but a few will be Laufender Bar for tactical flexibility.
ODERVELD – LEUCHTFEUER has confirmed that the OKB Chief of Staff endorsed the Ableitung II – OKH recommendation and Defence Minister Maximillian von Kluge has approved it.
The Laufender Bar has a mass of 31.4 tons, a height of 3.1 meters for the turret roof, a length of 7.4 meters and a width of 3.7 meters. It has a crew of 3 and can carry up to six passengers. There is one piece crew cabin so in medical emergencies the gunner or driver can be replaced with another crew member. It is designed so additional armor may be added as a module when desired for an operation. It is powered by an 11.1 litre internal combustion engine with a great power to weight ratio It has a maximum speed on road of 70 kilometers per hour and maximum range of 600 kilometers on road.
The Laufender Bar has hydrostruts hydropneumatically operated by water and gas and 5 wheels per side propelling tracks. Its armor is modular and composite. Its main armament is a 30 mm autocannon while its secondary armament is a 5.56 mm light machine gun.
The Barenjunges has a combat weight of 23,000 kilograms, a length of 6.83 meters, a width of 3.04 meters and a height of 2.54 meters. It has a crew of 2 and can carry 10 additional personnel. It is powered by a V6 turbocharged water cooled four stroke diesel engine. It is fully automatic with 6 forward speeds and one reverse gear coupled to a one speed transfer case for changing number of axles engaged for its six wheels which have coil springs and shock absorbers.
The Barenjunges is protected by steel armor and has a maximum speed of 105 kilometers per hour or 10 kilometers per hour in water. Its range is 800 kilometers. Its main armament is a 7.62 mm machine gun and its secondary armament consists of grenade launchers.
OKH and Ableitung II will shortly be recommending armored vehicles for the panzer grenadier battalions.
