Abstract

The history of the Rosomak wheeled armoured personnel carrier dates back to the mid-1990s of the 20th century when Sisu Defence engineers began developing the technical and tactical specification for a new vehicle. The newly-designed vehicle was named AMV (Armoured Modular Vehicle) – XC-360. In Poland the vehicle is referred to as the Rosomak Wheeled Armoured Personnel Carrier.The article presents results of tests related to stability and steerability of the wheeled armoured personnel carrier. The article attempts to assess the influence of design changes on operating the vehicle and ensuring soldiers safety.
