AMPV Family

Still not done =P

 

From left to right:

AMPV 1, easily airliftable and internally carryable in larger helicopters while maintaining crew-protection and mobility.

 

AMPV 2, Standard patrol version. The armored cell extends from the cabin to the cargo-area, more internal room and heavier.

 

AMPV VIP. Special forces variant of the AMPV, made to look like a civilian SUV, while maintaining the same armor as the standard version. Used for covert ops and VIP extraction. Can be fitted with a retractable and disguised weapon-station in the cargo-area.

 

Developed by Rheinmetall and Porsche, the AMPV family-members fill the position of a light but extremely well-protected patrol and recon-vehicle, in the gap between the heavier Eagle and Dingo MRAP vehicles, and the light Wolf G-Wagen family.
