Excavator Arm
The Excavator Arm provides an Armoured Engineer Vehicle with a powerful excavating, grabbing and lifting capability.
Overview
The Excavator Arm is permanently fitted to the hull and offset on a sturdy slewing ring. It is operated from the vehicle hydraulics.
The Excavator Arm is equipped with a 1.00 cu m (35.3 cu ft) bucket and an object pick-up thumb for grabbing and lifting. The thumb is a permanent feature, stowing neatly along the outer jib (the ‘stick’).
An optional boom-mounted earth auger is 0.70m (28”) in diameter and is capable of boring 2.00m (7’7”) deep holes.
