2024年4月18日 · Recently, General Dynamics European Land Systems (GDELS) has unveiled a new version of the IFV Piranha in its 10×10 variant called the “Heavy Mission Carrier” (HMC). The new model of IFV aims to address the observed need in several NATO nations for highly mobile vehicles to support the renewal processes of their wheeled armored fleets.

The Piranha V infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) is the fifth generation variant of the Mowag Piranha family of vehicles. It was designed by General Dynamics European Land Systems - Mowag GmbH. [3] The first prototype was completed in 2008. [4] It was first introduced during the Eurosatory exhibition in 2010. [5]

According to MOWAG, the new five-axle configuration offers the following advantages: (1) Redundancy of drive assemblies in the case of a drive assembly failure due to combat damage. (2) High cross-country mobility with crew comfort. (3) Minimal vehicle width for air-transportability (the 10x10 model is air-portable in a C-130)

The Piranha IV is the fourth generation of the Piranha family of armoured vehicles by MOWAG GmbH. Its development started in the 2000s as a fully private venture. A first prototype was unveiled in 2001, and a second in 2004. [3] . This new version offered an increased volume inside the cabin, and a higher level of protection.
