YPR 765 – jaluta ringi

2007 AIFV (Armored Infantry Fighting Vehicle) is a tracked light armored vehicle that serves as an infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) in the armies of several countries. It is a development of the M113A1 armored personnel carrier. While the US was uninterested in the design, a number of other governments were interested in the vehicle, which was simpler, lighter, and cheaper than the Bradley. After a series of demonstrations and the delivery of four evaluation vehicles in 1974, the Netherlands government placed an order for 880 of the vehicles in 1975, which were designated YPR-765 Kui nad teenistusse astusid. Hollandi valitsuse palvel tehti mõned muudatused, sealhulgas relvajaama nihutamine paremale küljele ja komandöri liigutamine juhi taga. Holland tellis 2079, millest 815 toodeti kohapeal litsentsi alusel. YPR-2000 programmi raames uuendati peaaegu kõik Hollandi sõidukid YPR-765A1 standardile ja neid on lihtne tuvastada NATO 3-toonilise kamuflaažimustriga[vajalik selgitus]. Afganistani sõja ajal varustati mitu sõidukit täiendava turvisega.
