Rheinmetall presents the Lynx KF41 Infantry Fighting Vehicle at DEFEA defence exhibition in Greece

From May 9 to 11, 2023, the DEFEA defence exhibition will be held in Athens, Greece. Rheinmetall will present its Lynx KF41 Infantry Fighting Vehicle, a strong contender for the modernization of the mechanized brigades of the Hellenic Armed Forces. The Lynx KF41 is Rheinmetall's answer to the requirements of future battlefields and offers superior capabilities in terms of survivability, lethality, mobility as well as command and control. The Lynx KF41 is one of the most advanced infantry fighting vehicles on the market and is attracting considerable interest worldwide. Hungary is currently the first NATO country introducing Lynx KF41 into service with first deliveries taken place in 2022.
 
Lynx KF41 - modular, flexible, future-proof
The Lynx KF41 concept comprises a complete family of vehicles consisting of the common drive module and flexible mission modules in numerous variants. This allows each basic vehicle to be configured, for example, as an infantry fighting vehicle, air defence system, command vehicle or medical vehicle.
 
The mission module can be changed between variants throughout the life of the platform. By making the drive module identical, this system significantly reduces lifecycle costs and also allows military users to adapt force structures or develop new capabilities in a short time to react to changes on the battlefield. Lynx KF41 is characterized by high levels of survivability, mobility and combat power, as well as high growth potential, including in terms of total weight and power consumption.
 
The Lance 2 turret has powerful sensor systems to fully exploit the capabilities of the associated next-generation 30mm programmable ammunition fired by its main MK30-2/ABM autocannon and the advanced Spike LR2 anti-tank missile system. This allows it to engage both symmetric and asymmetric threats in a situation-adapted manner.
 
Lynx KF41 and Lance 2 are fully digitized and based on the NATO Generic Vehicle Architecture (NGVA). This integrates the vehicle crew, dismounts and the vehicle itself into the digitized battle management system.
