Cadillac Gage V-200 Commando
The V-200 was essentially an enlarged version of the V-100 and utilized many components of the US Army's 5 ton trucks. This version was specially tailor-made to the specifications of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) and manufactured exclusively for use by the SAF. ST Kinetics upgraded the Singaporean fleet of V-200 vehicles in the 2002–2003 time frame with upgrades--a fully electric turret drive system by Moog--as well as improvements to both the engine and transmission systems. All in all, about two hundred fifty V-200s were acquired by SAF, with the Singapore Army (thirty V-100s and another forty V-150s), keeping two hundred V-200s in reserve storage while the remaining fifty V-200s were relegated for use by the Republic of Singapore Air Force in the role of airbase defence/security duties and also as SHORAD air-defence systems. In these roles, the vehicles are generally equipped with the RBS 70 Surface-to-air missiles or a single Oerlikon 20 mm cannon plus FN MAG 7.62 mm General-purpose machine guns for self-defense. In 2006 the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) decided to purchase 300 Terrex APCs to replace their remaining V-200s.
