It will be delivered beginning in 2022 in 16 variants of which 10 are basically armored personnel carriers (APCs), two will be reconnaissance vehicles and four communication vehicles. The French Armed Forces will take delivery of 689 vehicles between 2022 and 2025 with an additional 2,038 vehicles to be delivered between 2025 and 2032.
