New Thales Australia capability in UK competition

Minister for Defence Industry, the Hon Christopher Pyne MP, today congratulated Thales Australia on the launch of the Bushmaster MR6 protected mobility vehicle, which is currently competing in the United Kingdom Multi-Role Vehicle Protected (MRVP) programme.

Minister Pyne said if Thales is successful in the MRVP selection competition, the Bushmaster MR6 will support job creation in both Australia and the UK, while reinforcing defence industry trade ties between our two countries.

“The Bushmaster is an Australian success story, delivering for the Australian Defence Force, the local defence industry and Australia’s domestic manufacturing capability,” Minister Pyne said.

“Thales Australia’s new vehicle builds on the original Bushmaster’s battle proven world-class capability, and continues its record of safety and reliability.


“The original Bushmaster is widely recognised as one of the finest protected mobility vehicles in the world and is currently in service with eight countries. With the launch of the MR6, I look forward to Thales continuing to deliver top class capability around the world.

“Like the Bushmasters operated by the Australian Defence Force, its innovative design protects passengers from explosive devices and has proven itself time and again on operations in high-risk environments, saving countless lives.

“Thales has invested significantly in the design of the new vehicle at its Vehicle Centre of Excellence facility in Bendigo, Victoria.

“This work enhances the vehicle’s operational capability and increases its competitiveness on the global stage,” he said.

  1. Cakep yang depannya ada cover grill baja nya tuh kayak yg diadopsi Sanca Pindad buat ngelindungin depannya... depannya jalur radiator mesin kan ya ?

    Kalau depan kena proyektil peluru atau RPG mungkin bisa ketahan Front Guard nya duluan... cmiiw

    1. Hahahaha...

      Ini mas saya bantuin cari bedanya :

      The Bushmaster MR6 offers increased blast and ballistic protection and is now powered by a 330-horsepower engine, compared to 300-horsepower for the first version, and has the same maximum range of 800 kilometres. The vehicle also has an increased troop capacity, with 12 people including driver and commander instead of 10.

      The main visible difference between the Bushmaster MR6 and the original Bushmaster is that the MR6 has no windows on the side of the troop compartment.

      Harga per unit kurang lebih $ 500,000
      Indonesia sudah memesan Sanca (Bushmaster versi License Indonesia) sebanyak 50 unit.. 30 untuk operasi UN dan 20 untuk dipakai Kopassus sendiri..

      50 x $ 500,000 = alias $ 25 mil atau mungkin bisa naik ke $ 40 mil karena ada unsur TOT (harus diconfrim dulu), sebuah angka yg lumayan menimbang kita masih disebut negara miskin sama bbrp orang disini :-)

      A local variant made by Pindad known as Sanca is based on the Bushmaster, but created to meet Indonesian requirements, was revealed on 3 November 2016[16] after it was announced on 28 October 2016 that Thales will work with Pindad.[45] 50 Sancas are scheduled for delivery with 30 going to Indonesian forces stationed overseas on peacekeeping ops and 20 for Kopassus forces.[16] Sanca means Snake in the Indonesian language.[46] The Sanca is made in collaboration with PT Len

    1. Iya bung, versi dasar Bushmaster cuma memenuhi STANAG level 1, cuma bisa menahan peluru 5,56 mm. Tapi armor yg ditebalkan di bagian bawahnya sebagai pelindung dari ranjau.
