MAV, which entered the Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) inventory in March 2023, not only ensures the safe landing of troops on the shore in landing operations, but also can serve as an armored combat vehicle or armored personnel carrier after disembarking.
MAV, the fastest amphibious vehicle owned by the TAF, has a 12.7 mm machine gun and a 40 mm grenade launcher weapon system. MAV, which has a personnel capacity of 21 people, has all the features that a military land vehicle and sea vehicle should have.
MAV, which is the first and only personnel carrier vehicle designed for both sea and land in the inventory of the Armed Forces, can also correct itself in case of capsizing.
MAV is designed for amphibious operations and is intended to ensure the rapid transfer of marines to the coast and to provide support on the coast. Developed for the Navy, MAV shows superior performance in both land and sea conditions.
The vehicle stands out for its ability to correct itself even if it capsizes at sea and its ability to move at a speed of 7 knots. In addition, MAV, which has high ballistic and mine protection, is equipped with advanced mission equipment. Designed by FNSS, the CAKA Remote Weapon System provides effective firepower with a 12.7 mm machine gun and a 40 mm automatic grenade launcher.
