<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To substantially increase an elevation angle of a wheeled combat vehicle. <P>SOLUTION: In this wheeled combat vehicle, a gun battery 4 is turnably mounted on a vehicle body 2, and a barrel 3 is elevatably disposed on the gun battery 4. Suspension legs 20-90 are disposed on right and left sides of the vehicle body 2. The suspension legs 20-90 have wheels 21-91, and hydraulic spring dampers 23-93, and a vehicle height is controlled by expansion and contraction of the hydraulic spring dampers 23-93. When an elevation angle of the barrel 3 is increased, the suspension legs 20-90 are controlled to be expanded and contracted to tilt the vehicle body 2 so that the barrel 3 further looks upward, thus the elevation angle of the barrel is substantially increased, and when a depression angle of the barrel 3 is increased, the suspension legs 20-90 are controlled to be expanded and contracted to tilt the vehicle body 2 so that the barrel 3 further looks downward, thus the depression angle of the barrel is substantially increased. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
