The '''FV601 Saladin''' is a six-wheeled [[Armored car (military)|armoured car]] developed by [[Crossley Motors]]<ref name=Bull /> and later manufactured by [[Alvis Cars|Alvis]]. Designed in 1954, it replaced the [[AEC Armoured Car]] in service with the [[British Army]] from 1958 onward. The vehicle weighed 11 tonnes, offered a top speed of 72&nbsp;km/h, and had a crew of three.<ref name=Bull /> Saladins were noted for their excellent performance in desert conditions, and found favour with a number of [[Middle East]]ern armies accordingly.<ref name="MEED">''Middle East Economic Digest (1968)''. Collard, Elizabeth, Volume 12 pp. 131—173.</ref> They were armed with a 76&nbsp;mm low-pressure rifled gun which fired the same ammunition as that mounted on the [[FV101 Scorpion]].<ref name="Recognition" />

The Saladin also spawned an armoured personnel carrier counterpart, the [[Alvis Saracen]].<ref name="Recognition" />

Despite the vehicle's age and dated design, it is still in use in a number of countries in secondary roles.

==History==
===Development===
Following the end of the [[World War II|Second World War]], the British Army issued a requirement for a new, 6×6 wheeled armoured vehicle to replace the obsolete [[AEC Armoured Car]].<ref name="Jane2">((cite book |last=Christopher F. Foss|title=Jane's World Armoured Fighting Vehicles|url=https://archive.org/details/janesworldarmour00foss_271|url-access=limited|edition=1976|pages=[https://archive.org/details/janesworldarmour00foss_271/page/n157 156]–157 |publisher=Macdonald and Jane's Publishers Ltd |isbn=0-354-01022-0|year=1976))</ref> Design work began in 1947 and a contract was awarded to [[Alvis Cars]] to build two prototypes for trials. The new armoured car was designated FV601A and armed with an [[Ordnance QF 2-pounder]] gun.<ref name="Jane2" /> Alvis also proposed a much heavier fire support variant designated FV601B armed with a new 76&nbsp;mm [[High–low system|low-pressure gun]].<ref name="Jane2" /> Design work on the FV601B was subcontracted to [[Crossley Motors]], which engineered and manufactured six pre-production models.<ref name="Jane2" /> After further modifications by Alvis, the FV601C entered mass production in 1958 as the ''Alvis Saladin''. Production of the FV601C and its variants continued at the Alvis factory at Coventry until 1972.<ref name="Jane2" />

A special variant known as the FV601D was developed for law enforcement agencies and internal security purposes; this model lacked a co-axial machine gun and had different lights and smoke dischargers.<ref name="Jane2" /> The FV601D was only adopted by the German Federal ''[[Bundesgrenzschutz]]'', which designated it ''Geschützter Sonderwagen III''.<ref name="Compendium">((cite book|title=A Compendium of Armaments and Military Hardware|last=Chant|first=Christopher|location=London|publisher=[[Routledge]]|date=2013|orig-year=1987|isbn=978-1-315-88485-1|page=37))</ref> A Saladin was also offered with the same 30&nbsp;mm [[RARDEN]] autocannon as found on the [[Warrior tracked armoured vehicle|FV510 Warrior]] and [[Fox armoured reconnaissance vehicle|FV721 Fox]], but this model did not find favour with the British military or any export customers.<ref name="Jane2" />

The [[Federal Republic of Germany]] was the first country to express an interest in the Saladin, specifically the FV601D.<ref name=trade>((cite web|url=http://armstrade.sipri.org/armstrade/page/trade_register.php |title=Trade Registers |publisher=Armstrade.sipri.org |access-date=2015-11-03))</ref> When production began, export customers such as [[Australia]], [[Indonesia]], and [[Ghana]] also placed large orders for the vehicle.<ref name=trade /> By the late 1960s, the British Army was beginning to dispose of second-hand Saladins as military aid for various [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth]] member states.<ref name=trade /> The Saladin performed well on the export market but was not as successful as its primary competitor, the French [[Panhard AML]]-90, which was much more heavily armed, and cheaper.<ref name="MEED" />

The Saladin shared many common components with the [[Alvis Saracen|Saracen]] armoured personnel carrier, [[Alvis Stalwart|Stalwart]] high mobility load carrier and [[Alvis Salamander|Salamander]] fire tender.

===Service===
==== British Army ====
The Saladin was used by B Sqn [[16/5 Lancers]] during their defence of [[Nicosia airport]] in 1974 and subsequent armed recce operations under the banner of the UN. Saladins were also employed by the British Army in [[Northern Ireland]] during [[The Troubles]].<ref name="1721L">((Cite book|last=Taylor|first=Steven|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=o0h-AwAAQBAJ&dq=saladin+armoured+car+northern+ireland&pg=PA119|title=The 17/21st Lancers: 1759-1993|publisher=Pen and Sword|year=1993|isbn=9780850522723))</ref>
In 1975 Saladins of B Squadron 1RTR were moved from Pergamos Eastern SBA to assist with the defence of Nicosia Airport, this was a stand off with Turkish forces and UN forces.

==== Australia ====
The [[Royal Australian Armoured Corps]] (RAAC) modified Saladin turrets, and fitted them onto [[M113 Armored Personnel Carrier|M113A1]] tracked personnel carriers; this combination was known as the Fire Support Vehicle (FSV). However, the same name was also used for a subsequent vehicle, based on the turret from the [[FV101 Scorpion]]  (and accepted by the RAAC in 1976). This was later redesignated the Medium Reconnaissance Vehicle (MRV).<ref>((cite web |url=http://www.army.gov.au/Our-work/News-and-media/50-years-service-for-M113 |title=50 years service for M113 - Australian Army |access-date=2016-02-20 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160502182343/http://army.gov.au/Our-work/News-and-media/50-years-service-for-M113 |archive-date=2 May 2016 |df=dmy-all ))</ref>

==== Oman ====
The Saladin was widely used by the [[Sultan of Oman]]'s armed forces throughout the [[Omani Civil War]], and saw extensive action during the period 1971 to 1976, supporting ground forces and on convoy patrol. Often crewed by British servicemen (loan soldiers) and Omani servicemen, the [[Sultan's Armoured Car Squadron]] consisted of an estimated 36 Saladins. They saw extensive action supporting troops from the British SAS, [[Firqa (military)|Oman Firqa]], Oman regulars, and Iranian forces in their war with the [[Adoo]]. The squadron's vehicles were regularly attacked by [[Katyusha rocket launcher|Katyusha rockets]], anti-tank mines, [[rocket propelled grenade]]s, and light and heavy machine gun fire. Many vehicles were mined and repaired, and after the end of the war in 1976 the Saladin remained in service until the early 1980s. An unpublished account called ''The Tinned Equivalent'' was written in 1977, and details many of the events of that war((citation needed|date=May 2019)).

==== Sri Lanka ====
The [[Ceylon Army]] received several ex-British Army Saladins following the outbreak of the [[1971 JVP insurrection]] and were deployed counter-insurgency operations. These were used extensively by the [[Sri Lanka Armoured Corps]] in the 1980s in the early stages of the [[Sri Lankan Civil War]], with its 76&nbsp;mm gun being effective in countering insurgents. However, the wheeled vehicles had limited cross country capabilities and suffered damage from [[Improvised explosive device|IEDs]] and [[Rocket-propelled grenade|RPGs]] in urban areas. In one case, in July 1987 during an [[Battle of Nelliady|insurgent attack on an army encampment]] in Jaffna, a Saladin was knocked out when an RPG entered through the drivers viewing portal, killing the driver and a sergeant inside. The LTTE mounted the turret of a captured Saladin on to a captured [[Type 63 (armoured personnel carrier)|YW531]] turning it into a [[light tank]], which was later captured by the Sri Lankan Army at the end of the civil war.<ref>((cite news |title=Armored vehicles converted by Sri Lankan rebels/Bangladesh |url=https://min.news/en/military/8a12c77bfce28e4fd76b70f56958991f.html |access-date=8 October 2021 |agency=min.news))</ref> The Sri Lankan Army phased out its Saladin's from its A list in the 1990's due to lack spares from the United Kingdom and replaced it with [[BMP-1]] [[Infantry fighting vehicle|IFV]] after an order for [[Cadillac Gage Commando]]s fell though. It retained one for ceremonial use.<ref>((cite book |last1=Wickremesekera |first1=Channa |title=The Tamil Separatist War in Sri Lanka |date=2016 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=9781317293859 ))</ref>  Saladins remained in reserve status till the end of the war in 2009. It forms the tank crew pin of the [[Sri Lanka Armoured Corps]].<ref>[https://www.army.lk/dress_regulation Dress Regulation]</ref>

==== Kuwait ====
During the [[1990 Gulf War|1990 invasion of Kuwait]], Saladins were filmed on the streets of Kuwait City during [[Battle of Dasman Palace]] against Iraqi forces.

==== Indonesia ====
The Indonesian Army (TNI AD) uses the Saladin for "KOSTRAD Cavalry Battalion", "KOSTRAD Recon Company" and Armoured Car Company. In 2014, the [[Indonesian Army]] confirmed that it was continuing to deploy the Saladin in active operations.<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.tni.mil.id/view-62112-ribuan-prajurit-tni-berhasil-kuasai-asembagus.html |title=Ribuan Prajurit TNI Berhasil Kuasai Asembagus &#124; WEBSITE TENTARA NASIONAL INDONESIA |access-date=2015-10-06 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150318184220/http://www.tni.mil.id/view-62112-ribuan-prajurit-tni-berhasil-kuasai-asembagus.html |archive-date=18 March 2015 ))</ref> Indonesian Vice President [[Jusuf Kalla]] charged state-owned arms manufacturer [[Pindad]] with developing a modernization package for the Saladin in early 2016, indicating the armoured car would continue to remain in service for some time.<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.tniad.mil.id/index.php/2016/03/dari-saladin-ke-badak/|title=Dari Saladin ke Badak – Tentara Nasional Indonesia Angkatan Darat|date=30 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160330005203/http://www.tniad.mil.id/index.php/2016/03/dari-saladin-ke-badak/|access-date=10 April 2019|archive-date=30 March 2016))</ref> By the end of the year 16 Indonesian Army Saladins had been modernized by Pindad.<ref name="IISS2016">((cite book|last=International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS)|title=The Military Balance 2016|year=2016|publisher=IISS|location=London|isbn=978-1857438352|pages=257–471))</ref>

==== Sudan ====
The [[Sudan]]ese Army deployed Saladins during the [[Second Sudanese Civil War]], some being captured by the [[Sudan People's Liberation Army|SPLA]].<ref>((cite journal|date=August 1998 |volume= 10|issue= 4|title=Sudan - Global trade, local impact: Arms Transfers to all Sides in the Civil War in Sudan|url=https://www.hrw.org/sites/default/files/reports/sudan0898%20Report.pdf|page=24|journal=Human Rights Watch Report))</ref>

==== West Germany ====
Nearly 100 Saladins were exported to the Federal Republic of Germany as part of a British assistance programme for the fledgling ''[[Bundesgrenzschutz]]'' in the mid to late 1950s.<ref name=trade /> In German service they were designated ''Geschützter Sonderwagen III'' and utilised for border patrols.<ref name="Compendium" /> All but 25, along with the entire German inventory of spare parts,<ref name="defensa">((cite web|url=http://www.defensa.com/frontend/defensa/caballeria-blindada-ejercito-honduras-vn10956-vst339|title=La Caballería Blindada del Ejército de Honduras|date=13 September 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160913230129/http://www.defensa.com/frontend/defensa/caballeria-blindada-ejercito-honduras-vn10956-vst339|access-date=10 April 2019|archive-date=13 September 2016))</ref> were later resold to [[Honduras]] as part of a $7 million deal negotiated through Honduran defence contractor Gerard Latchinian.<ref name="LAM">''Honduras Government Coup Plot''.
