Quotes

Minister for Defence Equipment and Support, Quentin Davies, said: "Warthog is an armoured beast of a vehicle that will carry troops to the heart of operations in the difficult terrain of Afghanistan's Green Zone. It can work in terrain where other vehicles find it difficult to operate. 'Warthog will provide improved protection to our troops on the front line and this marks a significant step forward in preparing this vehicle for our troops. 'I am delighted that Thales UK is able to contribute to that process here in the UK.' After the integration work the vehicles will undergo demanding trials to ensure Warthog is ready for the front line. Head of at Defence Equipment and Support, Brigadier Ian Simpson, said: 'Warthog has proven itself to be a very capable vehicle in its preliminary tests and trials. 'I am impressed by the high standards of engineering applied to this vehicle and the quality of the support package offered by , which will give our troops higher levels of protection and mobility. 'This vehicle has been manufactured and shipped to the UK for radios and armaments to be fitted and integrated into the vehicle. 'The vehicle will then have to be fully tested and certified as safe to use before being issued to troops for pre-deployment training. Once these tests have been completed the vehicle will be given to our troops.' Warthog will come in four variants - a troop carrier, an ambulance, a command vehicle and a repair and recovery vehicle."
...He seems to have always devoted himself to a search for the truth behind the accepted view; sometimes, as one story goes, to his detriment: "A witty and attractive Thracian servant is said to have mocked Thales for falling into a well while he was observing the stars and gazing upwards; declaring that he was eager to know the things in the sky, but that what was behind him and just by his feet escaped notice" (Baird/Kaufmann)
