Marder - WalkAround

The Marder (German for “marten”) is a German infantry fighting vehicle operated by the German Army as the main weapon of the Panzergrenadiere (mechanized infantry) from the 1970s through the present day. Developed as part of the rebuilding of Germany’s armoured fighting vehicle industry, the Marder has proven to be a successful and solid infantry fighting vehicle design. While it does include a few unique features, such as the fully remote machine gun on the rear deck, it is overall a simple and conventional machine with rear exit hatch and side gun ports for mounted infantry to fire through. The Marder is currently being replaced by its successor, the Puma. The Marder 1A3 yra šiuo metu labiausiai paplitusi šios sistemos versija ir yra eksploatuojama su Vokietijos Bundeswehr, Marder 1A4 skiriasi nuo 1A3 tik naudojant kriptografiją palaikantį radijo imtuvą. Naujausia "Marder" versija yra "Marder 1A5" su pažangia minų apsauga. Eksploatuojamas tik nedidelis šio varianto skaičius.
