Here are two South African Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs) The Ratel and the Caspir. I was wondering how these vehicles would stand up to the terrain and I.e.ds of Afghanistan? I would assume they would be slightly cheaper to make than those British vehicles in theatre at the moment, but as for whether they would withstand an IED that’s a question you sometimes don’t want to find out.
