The Grand Duchy has decided to sell it's APV to the world, but in limited quantities. they proudley present the:

VAB VMO Armoured Patrol Vehicle
size: (L x W x H) 6 x 2.5 x 2 meters
Armament: 30 mm cannon, teargas, smoke and 40 mm grenade launcher, 7.62mm machine gun
armour: 25mm thick, conventional, NBC and Fire proof.

The VAB VMO is the new APV for the van Luxemburg army. armed with a 30mm cannon and a 7.62mm machine gun, being amphibious and capable of engineering and recon tasks with its shovel and thermal and night-vision cameras, it is a force to be reckoned with. the 7.62mm machine gun is actually the flaw in the design, because the gunner is not protected against enemy fire from the back, Engineers are working on this.

(not showed on this picture is the machine gun, which is on the roof of the vehicle, left side just above the "Co-driver".)

when the need for a new, fast and capable APV arose, the Van Luxemburg Engineers came up with a 6x6 based on the widely used VAB. it needed Engineering capabilities to set up an early camp for the approaching units.
this was solved by the cargo space or personnel transport space and the Bulldozer on the front of the vehicle. when used in groups, it would make an excellent base-building-unit.

current price: $300.000 per vehicle
