More house cleaning and put off items for the now
2012/2013 Campaign just a handful in the MRAP category. Some of these items as shown here and in the other various threads were put off due to the heavy work load Don and Andy had to get through this year.
1) India has this vehicle as of about last fall with their police, through Mahindra & Mahindra of India is a licensed producer of the CASSPIR MK6 by BAE which was designed to compete against the GILA which made it into the game in the last patch for Nigeria and the UN. India has designated the vehicle as the MPV-1. You will note it now shares a Russian heritage as well. They will be in service with the Army later in the year.

2) Spain to purchase more RG-31 vehicles, I believe I saved this because in their OOB they didn't have them. But since that was awhile ago I'll leave myself the below "out".

3) Turkish designed KIRPI BMC 350 is a new MRAP which is in service with Turkey, Afghanistan and Iraq.

That's it for now here. Along with the CASSPIR 6 will also be a verification of the countries that have the CASSPIR as mentioned in the "DID" ref I believe.
