The
Wolf is a UK militarized version of the Land Rover Defender. Designated in
service as Truck Utility Light or Truck Utility Medium (TUL/TUM), the TUL was
based on the shorter wheel base Defender 90, whilst the TUM was based on the
Defender 110.
A
variant of TUM is the W.M.I.K(Weapons
Mount Installation Kit) for use as reconnaissance and close fire support
vehicles. WMIK fitted with roll cages and weapon mounts. Typically, the vehicle
will carry one 12.7 mm Heavy Machine Gun, 7.62 mm GPMG (General Purpose Machine
Gun) or on occasion the MILAN ATGM, on the rear ring-mount, with an additional
pintle mounted GPMG on the front passenger side. In late 2006, the MoD
announced it was purchasing 40 new belt-fed Automatic Lightweight Grenade
Launchers (ALGL) made by Heckler and Koch (HK GMG) that can fire up to 360
grenades per minute with a range of up to 1.5 km.; they are mounted on WMIKs in
Afghanistan.
