Australian Light Armored Vehicles.

The Australian Army has this listed on their site under Project Land 112.  Their classification system is confusing.  How they cobble that together with images of the ASLAV operating and deploying to Afghanistan is beyond me.

Update*
Army-Technology.com has a news release that Project Land 112 is the designation of an upgrade program for the ASLAV.  More info here.  It would seem that a Australia is embarking on a similar upgrade path that led the Marine Corps to the LAV-25A2.
