Light Infantry Vehicle (LIV) Serval : The Serval is a four-wheel drive light air transportable special operations vehicle. It is also known as Wolf AGF (Information and Combat Vehicle) or LIV (SO) Light Infantry Vehicle (Special Operations). The vehicle is distinguished, like all vehicles used in special units, by its relatively strong armament and light optional armor. The Special Forces Command (KSK) reported in 2002 that it had a need for such a vehicle;.
The project was completed within a year by the industry in 2003, with the Mercedes-Benz all-terrain vehicle G 270 CDI (long wheelbase) converted to meet the requirements of the KSK. To this end, the roof was removed and replaced with a roll cage. The company Rheinmetall Landsysteme supplied 21 vehicles to the special forces command. In 2006, the Swiss Army ordered a small number of vehicles for the Army Information Detachment. |
