Modular Bridging
Modular Bridging System, known as BR90 in British Army service, is the longest, fastest and most flexible tactical bridging system available. It is modular, and the panels are used in both tank-launched and general support bridges. All bridges take main battle tanks and 110 tonne loaded tank transporters.
The 52m bridge has been selected for a Far Eastern Army in an open competition with other international bridge companies. The system was preferred on technical, tactical and cost grounds.
The standard 32m General Support Bridge will cross over 75% of all world gaps and is built in 25 minutes by 10 men. The Advanced Long Span Bridge uses a high technology composite Cable Tensioning System to extend the bridge length to 52m to cross over 90% of gaps and can be built in only 75 minutes. Using pontoons or fixed piers, bridges extend to a span of over 62m.
