It looks like the Brazilian Army version of the Amphibious Vehicle Test Branch and Nevada Proving Ground are putting the VBTP-MR through its paces.  The vehicle will pass its tests and the only thing left is to get it into service.  I never noticed before but it appears that they will have both a APC and IFV version of the vehicle.  Smart.  Very Smart.

  1. Hey Solomon, check out these informations on modernization of argentinian TAM-2C carried out by Elbit Systems. By a fraction of cost, they will get a very nice combat vehicle. New improvements on optoelectronics, fire control, comunications and APU installed.
