Land Rover Wolf

Automobiles

The Land Rover Wolf is a light military vehicle made by Land Rover in the United Kingdom, based on the Defender and introduced in 1994. The Ministry of Defence designates the short wheelbase Wolf 90 as Truck Utility Light High Specification and the long wheelbase Wolf 110 as Truck Utility Medium High Specification, while Land Rover calls it eXtra Duty. It has a redesigned chassis with a reinforced rear axle, a fibreglass roof, a side mounted spare wheel and Goodyear G90 tyres, and the MoD chose the 300 TDI engine over the Td5 because its electronics were easier to manage in the field. The Wolf became a symbol of British forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, though its unarmoured design led to concern and to supplementation by armoured vehicles. The 110 remains in service.
