A coleção Armor & Cavalry no Tankodrome recebe o veículo BAE Systems Mobile Protected Firepower-MPF
The Mobile Protected Firepower (MPF) system is a U.S. Army program to procure a combat vehicle (or tank) that is capable of providing mobile protected direct offensive fire capability. The program is part of the Next Generation Combat Vehicle program. A previous light tank development for the Army, the M8 Armored Gun System, was canceled in 1996. The Army downselected General Dynamics Land Systems' (GDLS) Griffin II and BAE Systems' M8 AGS to go forward with evaluation. Both companies delivered prototypes of their vehicles in 2020. BAE's submission was disqualified in 2022. The Army selected the GDLS model later that year. The Army has a requirement for 504 units. |
