E-WMIK
Enhanced WMIK with modular armour, perforated recovery tracks, additional stowage and communications fittings.
History
The E-WMIK upgrade entered service from 2006, retaining the original Wolf-based WMIK layout. EMLRA describes uprated suspension, MAPIK underbody and wheel-arch protection, fragmentation alloy wheels, IR lamps, Bowman radios, ECM and rear panniers. An extended rear mount separates the HF aerial. This model follows the supplied preserved sand-coloured example; equipment internals are simplified. Production quantity is unknown and handling is game tuning.
