Hanwha Defense Systems has unveiled its new infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) design to be put forward for Australia’s Land 400 Phase 3. To be known in Australia as the AS21 Redback for the Land 400 Phase 3 campaign, modifications have been conceived to enhance survivability against higher threat levels and match peer enemy armoured fighting vehicles. Also, AS Redback’s larger hull with greater internal volume to accommodate eight 95th percentile male dismounts plus three crew. Hanwha confirmed that space, weight and power provisions have been made to enable the turret to accommodate an active protection system that the ADF will most likely select separately, with the detection and tracking sensors, radar and countermeasure dispensers clearly in evidence.

Uh ... wow!
