BOV M11
Military vehicle
The BOV M11 is part of the BOV family of light armored vehicles manufactured by Yugoimport SDPR.
Description
The BOV M11 has a primary role as a reconnaissance vehicle and command-reconnaissance vehicle. If used by artillery units, it could function as a remote observation post that observes an enemy and guides firing. Typically, an M11 is manned by a crew of 3, composed of a driver, commander, and gunner; the vehicle can accommodate up to four more personnel that could include scouts and the artillery command platoon’s commanding officer (CO).
The vehicle has a four-wheel drive and is powered by a diesel engine developing 190 hp. It may have specialized reconnaissance systems and artillery systems depending on its mission. The vehicle has a thermal camera sight at its front and a CCD camera at its rear. It is also equipped with an artillery electronic direction finder (AEG), artillery battery FCS computer, and other communications equipment.
The vehicle is typically armed for day and night combat. Typically, the main weapon system is a 12.7 mm heavy machine gun on a remote-controlled weapon station (RCWS). It is possible to integrate an additional RCWS with a 7.62 mm gun or 30 mm grenade launcher such as the BGA-30.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “BOV M11” as military vehicle. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as military vehicle. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 8, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q15991068. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
