The Panhard M3 is a French amphibious armoured personnel carrier that was developed in 1969 as a variant of the Panhard AML light armoured car. It uses the same mechanical and chassis components as the AML, which gives it a high degree of interchangeability and mobility. The M3 can carry up to 10 infantrymen in addition to the driver and commander, and can be armed with various weapons, such as machine guns or autocannon. The M3 can also traverse water at a speed of 4 km/h, thanks to its air-cooled petrol engine and its air and exhaust outlets on the hull roof. The M3 was never adopted by the French Army, but it was exported to many countries in Africa and the Middle East, where it saw service in several conflicts. The M3 was produced until 1986, with a total of 1,200 units built.
