Germany approves Puma retrofit, BvS10, and rifle procurement

On 14 December the budget committee of the Bundestag, the German parliament, approved the retrofit of Puma infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) and the procurement of BvS10 all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and Heckler & Koch HK416A8 assault rifles.

The budget committee approved around EUR850 million (USD900 million) for the retrofit of 143 Pumas so all IFVs of the type are of the same operational technical standard.

It approved another EUR405 million for the procurement of 140 BvS10 ATVs from BAE Systems Hägglunds to replace the German mountain troops' Bv206D ATVs under the Collaborative All-Terrain Vehicle (CATV) programme. The CATV programme is led by Sweden and includes the UK.
