Summary[edit]

Description
English: A Foxhound Light Protected Patrol Vehicle is pictured at Camp Bastion, Helmand, Afghanistan.

The UK ordered 200 of the Foxhound Light protected patrol vehicles. Foxhound is at the cutting edge of protected patrol vehicle technology, providing unprecedented levels of blast protection for its size and weight. Featuring blast survivability close to that of a Mastiff - and just a little bigger than the Snatch Land Rover it replaces – the Foxhound is ideally suited for manoeuvring around the narrow backstreets of Helmand’s towns and villages. Weighing in at six tones, it has a top speed of 70mph and can do 0-50mph in just 19 seconds. Four-wheel steering makes it extra agile, with a 40ft turning circle.
