How Can We Help?
The Armoured Multirole Carrier (AMC) is an eight-wheeled armoured personnel carrier designed by Renault Trucks Défense, part of Renault Trucks. A concept model was put on display for the first time at Eurosatory 2008. It is one of the contenders to replace the VAB, also made by Renault, around 2020, as part of "Project Scorpion", a large-scale military modernization programme.[1]
The AMC is a high-mobility medium armoured vehicle. A wide range of different models is planned, including six-wheel drive variants.[2]
