[0028] The passenger compartment D adopts a structure that retracts forward from the left and right sides. Three lightning-proof seats arranged in a triangular shape are arranged in the passenger compartment D, of which the single lightning-proof seat in the front is the driver's seat, and the steering wheel arranged in the middle is in front of the driver's seat. The passenger compartment D includes a passenger compartment bracket 1, which is connected to the off-road chassis by bolts. The outer sides of the passenger compartment bracket 1 are covered one by one by the corresponding bottom plate 6, top cover plate 4, left door group 3, front baffle 2, right door group 7 and rear baffle 5, and are all fixed by bolts. The left door group 3 and the right door group 7 both use a 360° enhanced surround view display instead of bulletproof glass.

[0029] The outer surface of the vehicle is coated with stealth paint. A variety of buffering and energy absorption mechanisms are set up in the vehicle. The top of the rear cabin adopts a groove design, and a lifting mechanism is set up in the groove. The second remote-controlled weapon station is connected to the lifting mechanism. The second remote-controlled weapon station H includes a 12.7mm heavy machine gun and an anti-tank missile, and the first remote-controlled weapon station G includes a 7.62mm automatic gun.

[0030] The purpose of the present invention is to design a multifunctional light tactical vehicle. In view of the design requirements of high protection and high mobility of light tactical vehicles, a three-cabin design scheme is proposed. The whole vehicle is composed of a front, middle and rear cabin combination, and each cabin is designed with different load-bearing weights, installation interfaces and protection levels according to the use requirements.

[0031] The middle cabin serves as the personnel operation area with the highest level of protection, and heavy equipment can be installed on the roof. The front and rear cabins are mainly used to install different equipment and weapons. In order to improve the protection capability, a large amount of thin armor materials are used in the front and rear cabins, which can provide additional protection for the equipment and chassis, while enhancing the protection of the personnel area.

[0032] Bolt connections are used to replace welding in traditional body processes to solve the problem of using high-performance steel in vehicles, eliminate the heat-affected zone of welding, reduce production costs, and make the body protection plan more flexible; the body design adopts an overall comprehensive protection solution, through a variety of buffering and energy-absorbing mechanisms, it effectively reduces the body damage of the occupants in the car under the impact of explosion.

[0033] The present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: the whole vehicle is composed of front and rear cabins plus a reconfigurable body. The design of the reconfigurable body mainly includes two parts: the body and the external protection assembly. In terms of structural design, bolt connection is adopted between each assembly of the body and each component in the assembly. This design method not only enhances the flexibility of the body structure, but also facilitates the rapid disassembly and replacement of different components, greatly improving the maintenance and upgrade efficiency of the vehicle. In addition, this bolt connection structure can effectively reduce the stress concentration of the welding point and improve the overall strength and durability of the body.

[0034] In terms of material selection, the front and rear cabins are made of high-strength steel, which has excellent protective properties and provides reliable safety protection for the occupants in combat. The use of high-strength steel ensures that the front and rear cabins have strong resistance to deformation when facing impact and explosion threats, effectively improving the survivability of the vehicle.

[0035] The weapon stations are set up at the front and rear of the vehicle, and they have extremely strong combat capabilities. Whether in terms of firepower coverage, shooting accuracy or weapon compatibility, the weapon stations can adapt to a variety of combat requirements and provide powerful firepower support for the vehicle when performing tasks. This design not only enhances the combat capability of the vehicle, but also allows the weapon system to be flexibly configured according to different mission requirements, so that the vehicle can play an excellent role in various tactical scenarios.

[0036] Given the importance of bolts in protective vehicle bodies, in order to ensure reliable and safe connections between various parts or assemblies, the bolts used in protective vehicle bodies are mainly high-strength bolts. Such high-strength bolts have stronger compression and tensile resistance than ordinary bolts, thereby ensuring that the bolts used in the vehicle body have good connection performance and a longer service life under extreme working conditions.

[0037] A light multi-functional tactical vehicle is reconstructed on an off-road chassis in a multi-cabin and multi-installation zone manner through a combination of bolts and bulletproof steel with a tensile strength of 1300 MPa, which is conducive to eliminating a welding heat-affected zone or avoiding stress concentration at welding points caused by welding, thereby improving the use efficiency, durability and protection of the vehicle. The vehicle comprises a first installation zone, a second installation zone and a third installation zone arranged in sequence from front to rear on the off-road chassis, a first displacement gap being provided between the first installation zone and the second installation zone, a second displacement gap being provided between the second installation zone and the third installation zone, a front cabin being assembled in the first installation zone, a passenger cabin being assembled in the second installation zone, and a rear cabin being assembled in the third installation zone, the front cabin, the passenger cabin and the rear cabin being assembled by a combination of bolts and bulletproof steel with a tensile strength of 1300 MPa, a first remote-controlled weapon station being provided in the front cabin, and a second remote-controlled weapon station being provided in the rear cabin.
