    The Rosomak is better.

      The Rosomak is the Polish variant of the Patria AMV.

        It's substantially improved. No longer the same vehicle.

        Nice try, Risto Pussilainen

          In that case...
          Is the Patria AMV XP the best 8x8 in the world?

            I hope Mexico chooses these with the French 40mm gun as their new IFV, but it will probably be the 8x8 version of the Guarani with the 40mm Bushmaster because the US and Brazil already use that platform.

              Gorgeous IFV that Guarani is.

                Mexico is looking at the 8x8 version which would be the SuperAV with the unmanned turret.

                Am I supposed to value their opinion?

                Mexico will probably not buy the Patria because burgers are buying the Guarani/SuperAV so the Mexican opinion absolutely should be disregarded.

                Already being replaced by a newer version that can have a 12.7mm mg or autocannon. Big ambition is that there are going to be thousands of these on thousands of DN series armored vehicles to replace every single Humvee in service.

                The SARAF 2 is exceptionally NOT low profile.

          It was designed so that the customer could add or remove features as they pleased, hence the 'M' in AMV. If the Rosomak is better because the Poles added features, then... the AMV is pretty great.

    Could they have chosen a more ridiculously high profile RWS for that thing? That fucker is probably going to be torn off by a branch or tunnel ceiling or something.

      Plz buy Mexican low profile RWS to destabilize Chinese manufacturing dominance. Designed to be so simple that Mexicans can't break it. Inventive feature included.

    Pretty Patri is too expensive. Even Finland just modernized Pasi's instead.

      Isn't the new 6x6 based on the AMV?

      Patria is the manufacturer. AMV is the big and expensive one and the tech from it was used to create the new cheap 6x6, kinda like the F-16.
      Pasi modernisation (XA-200) came around the same time as the AMVs themselves. Pasi's are the basic combat taxi's and AMVs were the heavier ones, almost wheeled IFVs. Not quite apples to oranges but maybe oranges to tangerines. 8x8s are a bit overkill for just ferrying infantry to the front.

      The new 6x6 will eventually become the pasi's inheritor (XA-300?) but there really isn't that huge of a rush and the Finns are probably waiting to see what the other clients/program partners want to do first for both economies of scale and general advacements.

      Not really. New 6x6 is cheaper new vehicle built to general layout of Pasi using AMV's suspension and drive train components. No reason to pay extra for something designed as wheeled IFV if they are only going to be equipped as APC with machine gun or 40mm grenade machine gun RWS.

      i ate that sweden cancelled buying those. cheap fucks.

      Stupid especially because Swedes already paid half of development costs in the first place.

    Probably not. It's fucking HUEG and unarmoured for the kind of loadouts they advocate/advertise.
