The
company’s Land Systems SA (LSSA) unit, better known
as “OMC”, says its RG41 is more modern and cheaper
than the locally-customised version of the Patria AMV currently
slated for production as the “Badger”.
“Technology
has evolved significantly in the years since Project Hoefyster
was first launched,” LSSA managing director Johan
Steyn says. “It makes sense then to look at newer
solutions such as [the] RG41 now available, which largely
meet the technical requirements and could provide cost savings
and broader economic benefits for the country.”
