Some info about the Stryker vehicle and the ESV class

Image

The IAV Stryker is a eight-wheeled armored fighting vehicle derived from the Canadian LAV III.It's based on the Swiss Piranha III 8×8.

Stryker vehicles are produced by General Dynamics Land Systems for the United States Army. It has 4-wheel drive (8×4) and can be switched to all-wheel drive (8×8).

M1132 Engineer Squad Vehicle (ESV): provides mobility and limited counter mobility support.
Integrated into the ESV are obstacle neutralization and lane marking systems and mine detection devices.
The ESV with its attachments provides a partial solution to the obstacle clearance role, primarily for clearance of hastily emplaced mines on hard surfaces and rubble, plus will enable the Engineer squad to control future robotic based systems.
