Thank You so Much Matsimus OT-64 was Indian Army's first 8X8 Wheeled APC that saw service alongside some BTR-60 during 3rd Indo-Pak war as well as during counter-insurgency operations during 80s & 90s , before being replaced in the same role by MRAPs and Tata Kestrel 8X8 APC Also Hilarious fact , India's 8X8 Tata Kestrel was also chosen by Moroccan Royal Army over Chinese 8X8 Platform with local licensed production ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND ARIGATO GOZAIMASU

There is also another communist Wheeled APC from China known as WZ-551 / ZSL-92 6X6 Wheeled APC , which was made from the previous WZ 523 APC , That resembles very much closely to , & in fact inspired from French 6X6 Renault VAB Indonesia also made PT PINDAD ANOA 6X6 APC based on VAB Also Yugoslavia has a domestic 4X4 APC called the BOV There are also some other 6X6 APCs like Brazilian EE-11 Urutu , which is based on & shares most of it's component with the EE-9 Infantry support vehicle as well as 8X8 Platforms like the Chinese Type-08 APC & Russian VPK-7829 Bumerang APC Also India has made the 8X8 Tata Kestrel APC , which has been successfully inducted by our CRPF units , but Army is in favor of importing Stryker , even after Canada ban sales of Stryker components to India following recent India-Canada diplomatic scuffles

Forgot to mention why it is Hilarious fact :- Actually despite CRPF chose Tata kestrel as their primary 8X8 APC , Army has been lobbying to get Stryker instead of Kestrel ( keep in mind that Kestrel is amphibious + V-shaped spall lined hull , making it mine resistant + lightweight + based on NATO battlebus doctrines ) , factors which make Kestrel superior over Stryker ( minus the armor , which the Stryker is slightly in edge over Kestrel ) . Army has always preferred foreign maal/goods over cooperation & investing in Indigenous products with serious cases of Corruption , while Navy have traditionally embraced & inducted many indigenous products , followed by Air force which have recently started trusting in , inducting & using Indigenous products as well with less cases of corruption in both navy & airforce cases

@klausberfelde-je2ye Or the French Renault VAB

YES ( In a NATO styled battle doctrinal way ) NO ( for cross country amphibious operation )

 @kakakiri2601 can . But speedwise , BTR series are superior & more robust for amphibious operations

@8000jk Let's admit this , Stryker is not meant for India at all , neither suiting to India's vast geography , nor it is supported by India's geopolitical stand of neutrality in an ever growing polarised world , regarding logistics chain
