The BVP-M2 SKCZ Šakal is a tier 6 Armored Fighting Vehicle originating from the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and is sold by Sophie Wölfli. It can be unlocked from the OT-64 Cobra, and leads to the KTO Rosomak.

Player Recommendations

The Šakal is a well armed and relatively well armored fighting vehicle capable of mobile flanking and ranged attacks to support Main Battle Tanks moving forward. With two powerful TOW missiles and a 30mm autocannon, it is capable of inflicting heavy damage on enemy targets and relocating quickly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent camouflage rating
  • Decent mobility
  • Relatively strong armor for an AFV

Cons

  • Reverse speed is abysmal
  • Missile launcher is far left of the targeting reticle, making close range shots inaccurate
  • Missiles cannot be reloaded one at a time
  • Very poor gun depression

Upgrade Suggestions

Upgrading to the Improved Thermal Sight, 30mm M929 APFSDS to help improve the firepower will offer a marked increase in vehicle lethality. Upgrading to the GALIX 17 Smoke Grenades will also offer a much more effective smokescreen to help the Šakal retreat when it is in danger.

Retrofit Suggestions

  • Advanced Muzzle Reference System
  • Augmented Optics
  • Improved Gun Breech
  • Improved Pioneer Tool Kit

Commander and Crew Skill Suggestions

  • Commander: Sabrina Washington, to improve the camo rating, view range, and crew stats.
  • Driver: Spin to Win, Off-Road Driving
  • Gunner: Sharpshooter, Do the Twist
  • Loader: Rapid Fire, Explosive Shells/Preparation

History

BVP Šakal is a joint Czech-Slovak experimental IFV designed in 2010 as an upgrade to the existing BVP-2, which was itself a copy of the Soviet BMP-2. It passed its trials but was never accepted into service, as the limitations of upgrading the BMP-2 chassis was apparent.
