Patria plans on supplying the Croatian armed forces with this vehicle, as a part of the international bid for new combat vehicles.

The presentation was followed by a number of representatives from Croatian companies that would be included in the project by means of a so-called “off set” program.

A total of €170 million has been set aside for the project.

The Croatian army is to be supplied with 126 such vehicles, with Austrian Steyr–Daimler-Puch and Finnish Patria to participate.

The “off set” program includes the shipping of production materials to Croatian partnership companies, mainly to Djuro Djakovic of Slavonski Brod, a company with a long history of military vehicle production.
