      The Al-Qaswa (Arabic: ٱلْقَصْوَاء) is a tracked logistics vehicle developed by Pakistan's Heavy Industries Taxila (HIT). It is based on the M113 APC and can carry 6 tones of military supplies.


      Etymology



      The vehicle is named after a female Arabian camel of Prophet Muhammad which he owned.


      Overview


      The first prototype of the Al Qaswa was completed in 2002. Designed for logistics roles, the vehicle can carry 6 tones of military supplies in its cargo compartment across all types of cross-country terrain especially in Pakistan's multi-terrain region.
      The vehicle is based on the chassis of the popular American M113 APC but instead of the normal five road wheels, the Al-qaswa has six on each side which gives the vehicle greater weight distribution and payload capacity. Furthermore, the cargo compartment can be adapted for different combat scenarios such as a weapons station for mortars, missile launchers, radars, Tactical Command Vehicle (TCV), MEDEVAC, maintenance vehicle etc.
