Belgium is buying Jaguar Armored Fighting Vehicles


via Janes.
Belgium's Council of Ministers announced on 22 June that it had approved the procurement of 60 Jaguar armoured fighting vehicles (AFVs) and 417 Griffon light combat vehicles currently under development in France.
Story here.

Interesting.  The Aussies just chest thumped about their CRV (whichever they choose) being the best in the world.  I think the Jaguar will give it a GREAT run for its money if not beat it outright.  One other thing.  This vehicle already has orders?  This could potentially be a world winning rig.  Looks like the French hit a homerun by going back to their armored roots and rediscovering the vehicle class that put them on the map.
