The Vietnam International Defense Exhibition 2024 recently took place and attracted great attention from international experts. Among the products on display, the XCB-01 infantry fighting vehicle, a product completely developed by Vietnam, stood out with a series of advanced features, affirming the domestic defense manufacturing capacity.
Superior technology, high flexibility
According to information from the exhibition area, the XCB-01 is designed to meet modern strategic requirements with a powerful UTD-20 diesel engine, 300 horsepower, far surpassing older generation vehicles such as the BMP-1. In particular, the XCB-01's underwater propulsion system allows it to reach a speed of 7 km/h in water, enhancing its ability to land and operate on many types of complex terrain.

According to Army Recognition - a prestigious defense website, compared to the BMP-1, which does not have this system, the XCB-01 shows a clear advantage in terms of flexibility and adaptability to diverse combat environments. The ground clearance of 0.37 meters, along with a length of 6.95 meters and a width of 3.25 meters, helps it maintain stable performance in harsh terrain conditions.
Another highlight of the XCB-01 is its superior protection, equipped with modern chemical, biological and radiological defense systems. These features help the vehicle effectively deal with threats not only from conventional weapons but also from modern biological and chemical agents.
Laser detection systems and smoke detectors provide additional protection, while an automatic fire suppression system ensures the safety of the crew and soldiers. With a combat weight of 14.85 tonnes, the XCB-01 can carry up to eight soldiers and three crew members, providing optimal protection and comfort in combat conditions.
