The Urga Bkolos 2100 is a military armored vehicle in Just Cause 3.
Appearance
It's a 4-wheeled armored fighting vehicle with a tank turret, resembling the Harland DTWV-2 Scout and GV-104 Razorback, but looking more realistic. It's based on the real world Panhard AML, and the turret resembles that of the Israeli Merkava tanks.
The Medici Military version is marked with three stars on the top of the turret, but The Rebellion counterparts have the top painted over in blue. The Rebellion version is slightly inferior to the military version for lacking a spare wheel and multiple minor pieces of equipment that are attached to the walls of the latter. This inferiority is only visual and does not effect the actual performance.
The Rebel drop description is "Urga's Light combat vehicle Bkolos 2100 is ideal for fast Siege attacks or surprising flank attacks. A 76 mm gun is standard on board."
Performance
Trailer 4 (E3 trailer) shows the vehicle being driven at 70 km/h on flat ground.
The turret is operated by the player. The weapon used is a 76mm tank cannon, which is called "Light cannon" on the HUD. The suspension is firmer than the CS Odjur, making it much easier to aim the gun. It can also reload faster than the heavier armored vehicles. The gun is smaller and weaker than that of the CS Odjur.
Just like the heavier vehicles, it's not completely bullet proof, as it begins to smoke and eventually explodes from prolonged small arms fire.
It's pretty slow, but it can turn quite sharply at low speed.
Locations
Medici Military
- Can appear at high levels of Heat in the following circumstances:
- Outside of a police station combat zone while you're fighting the D.R.M..
- If you hear "This is Dispatch, we are sending tanks to your location." that means an Urga Bkolos 2100 and/or a CS Odjur has spawned. This usually happens during an attack on a military base, or town.
- Heat levels 3 and above can spawn it.
- Rarely in Insula Striate it can be summoned at heat level 2 or even 1.
- At many Military bases in Medici:
- Can be found being transported by Train. The train can be destroyed and the Bkolos can be taken.
- At factory ruins at Maestrale.
- Appears in some missions.
The Rebellion
- At many military bases and outposts in Medici, after they've been liberated.
- Unlocks for Rebel drop after taking over Cima Leon: Transmitter.
Trivia
- It's made by the fictional company Urga.
- The red light from the brake lights will still reflect from the body panels after the rear lights have been destroyed.
- Before game release, the weapon was called "Tank cannon small". See also Vehicle mounted weapons and Cut game content from Just Cause 3.
- It is the successor to the GV-104 Razorback from JC2.
- The needless corner in the front mud-guard makes the vehicle seem like a product of the same company as the Stria Obrero, which shares this design feature.
Glitch
Main article:' Just Cause 3 Bugs and glitches
It has been reported that sometimes the turret might start to aim higher than the cross-hair and eventually become unresponsive. The fix is to aim the turret at the ground, get out, then get back in. The Corvette is affected by the same glitch.
