Patria AMVXP 8x8 Selected by Japan
The Japan Ministry of Defense announced that the Patria AMVXP 8x8 had been selected for the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force as their next Wheeled Armored Personnel Carrier 8x8 vehicle under the WAPC programme. The selection includes the manufacturing licence of the vehicles in Japan, with a contribution to the local economy and technology development, securing the supply and service in the country.
The Patria AMVXP 8x8 vehicles will replace the Type-96 8x8 Armoured Personnel Carrier vehicles, which are currently in service by Japan Ground Self-Defense Force.
“Patria AMVXP 8x8 has successfully proven its superior performance, as well as its mobility and protection, in various crisis management missions, and Japan will be the ninth user country of Patria’s AMV vehicle family. The Japan Ground Self-Defense Force will receive state-of-the-art and high-performance Japanese-manufactured AMVXP 8x8 vehicles to support critical operations for decades to come”, said Janne Räkköläinen, Senior Vice President of Market Area World at Patria.
Patria has worked for the WAPC programme since 2018, and it has also established a local subsidiary, Patria Japan Ltd., to support its activities in Japan. The next step in the programme is licence negotiations which will start immediately.
