It’s made by the same people, a lot bigger and nicer
Still made out of fiberglas?

Our military had the great idea to take our BV206s into the desert with no armor.....they were awesome to drive around but not good for fighting in....

They were awesome in the snow though......if you never shut them off as they would freeze up and the diesel fired engine heater didn't always work....

No fiberglass, aluminum. They make an armored version, the BV10 that the Swede’s and a few other countries use. Ours are support vehicles, so we didn’t want the armor version

Sounds like they will be a good vehicle........

It's been years and years (and years) since I've driven a BV206 and even longer since I did the course on them.....
