The highly skilled engineering team of WZM’s thriving Drivetrain Centre have also carried out an R&D project dedicated to the power pack for the Borsuk IFV, currently in serial production stage.

The powerpack for the Borsuk is a proprietary drivetrain unit with the following basic technical parameters:

• weight (including operating fluids): approx. 3200 kg,
• dimensions: 2436mm × 1949mm × 1421mm (length × width × height),
• time of dismantling from the vehicle: less than 1 hour,
• MTU 8V199 TE20 engine (530kW maximum power, 2700Nm maximum torque),
• Allison Transmission X3003040 MX  (automatic, 4 forward gears, 2 reverse gears, hydrostatic steering),
• cooling system made in Poland,
• hydraulic pumps for the hydraulic system,
• 600 A alternator
• intake air filtration system with centrifugal separator.

Project name: New amphibius infantry vightinh vehicle (NBPWP).
The project is co-funded by the National Centre for Research and Development (NCBiR) under contract no. DOB-BiO/001/05/2014. Its main objective (the final product) was to develop a New Amphibius Infantry Vehicle (NBPWP) that would meet the required tactical and technical characteristics. The end result of the project: the essential prototype of the New Amphibius Infantry Vehicle (NBPWP) while the Borsuk Infantry Fighting Vehicle is currently produced in series.
