ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIER
DANA
The
APC
Dana
is built according to a modular principle. This design feature, coupled with the construction of the armored outer shell, makes it possible to quickly and efficiently assemble multi-purpose and multi-functional military vehicles on a standard chassis.
INNOVATIVE DESIGN
One of several engineering innovations in
Dana’s
design is the resourceful incorporation of a hydrostatic transmission drive* in place of a traditional mechanical transmission.
Also,
Arey’s
engineers powered
Dana
with an efficient and brawny General Motors engine with a 350 hp capacity.
On account of its hydrostatic transmission*,
Dana
exhibits exemplary dynamic performance characteristics, off-road durability and traversability, as well as ride stability, which is particularly important in order for installed modern weapons systems to function properly and effectively.

Dana
is capable of overcoming most water obstacles. The vehicle is equipped with two propellers that are powered by water cannons, designed by
Arey
.
ARMOUR PROTECTION
Dana
offers a high degree of protection for its crew.
Dana’s
shell consists of a high-quality layer of armor protection. The vehicle also comes equipped with a modern anti-mine hull. An additional degree of protection is achieved by
Dana’s
unique modular design.
SPECIFICATIONS
Dana’s
base level of protection corresponds with the requirements of class PZSA-6 (according to DSTU 3975-2000) and provides protection to the vehicle’s crew from shots fired from a B-32 type weapon (7.62 mm: e.g., an SVD rifle) from a distance of 15 meters with a flight speed of 850 m/s.
If necessary, it is possible to install additional modular protection elements with a total weight of up to 800 kg in order to protect the crew from damage by armor-piercing bullets of type B-32 caliber 12.7 mm at a distance of not less than 30 meters.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
WEIGHT:
The total weight of this combat vehicle when outfitted with standard equipment is 8 tons, or — 9 tons when outfitted with additional sets of armor
RANGE & SPEED:
Dana’s
range is approximately 650 km. Its maximum speed on general-purpose roads is 100 km/h; on water — 10-12 km.h.
COMBAT:
In its base configuration, this combat vehicle can transport personnel (a crew of up to 9 persons) and their weapons systems.
Dana
is designed as a combat assault vehicle. Its function is to participate in combat operations, carried out by mechanized, highly mobile assault forces.
