Full specifications

Performance

Speed, range, altitude and engagement capability.

Performance specifications
Range Maximum distance: ferry range for aircraft, operational range for vehicles, maximum engagement distance for missiles. Higher means more standoff or persistence.	800 km Stronger than 89% of IFVs

Firepower

Armament, payload and guidance.

Firepower specifications
Secondary armament Additional weapons: coaxial MG, remote weapon station, gun pods.	7.62mm or 12.7mm machine gun, or 40mm automatic grenade launcher (RCWS-mountable)

Protection

Armor, countermeasures and survivability.

Protection specifications
Armor Armor technology: composite, modular, ERA-fitted, uranium-ceramic. Exact compositions are classified.	Ballistic-steel monocoque body, mild-steel inner floor, under-body blast protection; CEN Level 6 crew compartment, optional ceramic/composite add-on armor

Physical

Dimensions, weight and crew.

Physical specifications
Length Overall length including gun/probe where applicable.	5.19 m
Width Overall width, matters for rail/road transport of vehicles.	1.97 m
Height Overall height. Lower profile is harder to spot and hit for ground vehicles.	2.13 m
Combat weight Fully loaded weight. Lighter eases transport and bridging limits; heavier often means more armor.	5,760 kg
Crew Personnel required to operate. Fewer reduces exposure; autoloaders trade a loader for mechanical complexity.	2
Cargo payload Maximum cargo the transport can carry. Higher means more lift per sortie. On an unmanned ground vehicle, this is the maximum mission payload the platform carries, including a weapon station.	1,000 kg
Troop capacity Number of embarked troops/passengers (IFV, APC, transport). Higher carries more.	7 Stronger than 31% of IFVs

Propulsion

Engine, power and fuel.

Propulsion specifications
Engine Powerplant model and type.	4.5L V8 diesel (216 hp) or 5.7L V8 petrol (381 hp)
Engines Number of engines. Twin-engine gives redundancy at higher cost.	1
Engine power Engine output power. Higher moves more weight faster.	216 hp Bottom 3% of IFVs
Propulsion type Turbofan, turboshaft, diesel, gas turbine, solid-fuel rocket, ramjet…	Diesel/petrol

Program

Cost, production scale and operators.

Program specifications
Operator countries Number of countries operating the system. More operators means broader support ecosystem.	2 Stronger than 48% of IFVs
