The first three BvS10 vehicles in the Swedish, German, and United Kingdom's joint procurement have rolled off the production line at BAE Systems Hägglunds in Sweden ÖRNSKÖLDSVIK, Sweden, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BAE Systems (LON: BA) presented three BvS10 Armored Personnel Carriers for Sweden, Germany, and the United Kingdom during a ceremonial delivery – providing their Armies with unrivalled mobility through the BvS10 Collaborative All-Terrain Vehicle (CATV) program.
"The extreme mobility capabilities offered by the BvS10, and the multiple uses that it enables, provides the user nations with a reliable, high tech and modern capability that is instantly ready for missions in the harshest environments," said Tommy Gustafsson-Rask, managing director of BAE Systems Hägglunds. "And because of the streamlined procurement model, nations will easily be able to join seamlessly and receive the advanced capabilities the BvS10 provides." The vehicles are based on the latest version of the BvS10 currently operated by Sweden, and includes variants for troop transport, logistics, medical evacuation, recovery, and command and control. They are the first of a total of 663 to be procured under a landmark framework agreement, which sets a new standard for joint procurement. Through separate Purchase Order Agreements (PoA) placed under the same framework agreement, 236 BvS10s will be delivered to the Swedish Defense Materiel Administration (FMV), 60 to the United Kingdom Ministry of Defence (MoD), and 140 to the German Federal Ministry of Defence (BAAINBw) by 2028. Under the same framework, an additional PoA for 227 more BvS10 vehicles were contracted by Germany, demonstrating the success of the contractual set up which provides the opportunity for more nations to procure vehicles under the same arrangement. The BvS10 is world-leading when it comes to all-terrain solutions. The articulated mobility system provides optimal maneuverability across varying terrains to traverse snow, ice, rock, sand, mud or swamps, as well as steep mountain environments. The vehicle's amphibious feature also allows it to swim in flooded areas or coastal waters. It can deliver personnel and supplies to sustain strategic, tactical, and operational mobility. The vehicle's unrivaled mobility is based on terrain accessible North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) standards. Its modular design allows it to be reconfigured for varying missions and can be delivered in multiple variants that include carrying personnel, command and control, ambulance, vehicle repair and recovery, logistics support, situational awareness, and a weapons carrier with additional mortar capability. BvS10 is currently operated by Austria, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. For more information, please contact: Ola Thorén, BAE Systems Hägglunds www.baesystems.com/US
