The Enigma is an 8×8 wheeled amphibious armored personnel carrier developed by Emirates Defense Technology in UAE. It was introduced at IDEX 2015.
Design
The driver sits at the front-left side with the engine to his right. The turret is in the middle, and the passenger compartment, which accommodates 8 soldiers with their gear, is located at the rear. Soldiers enter and leave the vehicle via the powered rear door and roof hatches. Air-conditioning has been added for the comfort of crew and passengers.
Weapons
The Enigma is fitted with the turret of a Russian BMP-3 with 100 mm cannon, coaxial 30 mm machine gun, coaxial 7.62-mm machine gun, and smoke grenade launchers. The 100 mm cannon auto-loader is able to fire 10 rounds per minute, firing HE-FRAG projectiles beside ordinary and laser-guided anti-tank ammunition. It can launch laser-guided projectiles in the same manner as ordinary rounds.
The 30 mm auto-cannon is used against ground and low flying air targets with a range of 2 km against ground targets and 4 km against helicopters. Other proposed versions include a fire support vehicle (FSV) with a 155 mm howitzer, and an air defense vehicle fitted with automatic cannons.
Protection
Enigma's front arc is able to withstand 30 mm armor-piercing rounds while other parts of the vehicle resist against 14.5 mm armor-piercing rounds. Additionally applied armor can be fitted according to customer requirements. The vehicle has a v-shaped hull to resist mines and IED explosions. The tires feature a 'run-flat' capability. Engima has been provided with a battlefield management system (BMS), active defense suit, periscopes, local cameras and an NBC protection kit.
Engine
The Enigma is powered by a Caterpillar turbocharged diesel engine developing Шаблон:Convert. On paved streets, the Enigma can reach Шаблон:Convert. The vehicle has an all-wheel steering capability. On water, the Enigma uses two propellers fixed to the rear of the hull.
