The new Engineering Combat Vehicle (VCZAP) had an important role in the FEINDEF. Developed by General Dynamics European Land Systems – Santa Bárbara Sistemas with the active participation of SASCorp, this ECV presents a hull with a higher level of protection than the rest of the members of the Pizarro family, with a multitude of adaptive equipment and exterior cameras to improve the situational awareness. SASCorp has used its advanced supercomputing capability to design a platform capable of withstanding current and future threats. For this purpose we have simulated high energy physical phenomena, side falls, rollovers and crashes.
In addition, the VCZAP can incorporate the VTOL UAV Heimdall/Ares, developed by SASCorp, which can carry two AGM or AAM missiles and a specialized radar to analyze the ground density in order to detect mines or IED’s.
