ACV30
The ACV30 (Medium Weight) fully amphibious platform is the general name for the 20-30 ton class modern high performance family of vehicles, derived from the highly successful FNSS ACV15 and ACV19. The ACV30 vehicle has a greater suspension capacity and improved power pack performance offering significant more power capacity than ACV 15 and ACV 19. This additional performance means that the ACV30 platform is able to carry significant higher payloads which include weapon stations mounting 105mm guns and heavy air defence systems. 
ACV30 platform chassis is provided with a unique, space laminated armor system combining steel and aluminium technology to provide a high level of armor protection against direct KE threats. Also, the hull provides protection against mines. The vehicle configuration(s) can be tailored in accordance with customer operational requirements into a true family of vehicles which can be utilized by cavalry, infantry, MBTs support vehicles and artillery.
Command control vehicle variant of ACV30 will be displayed in FNSS stand and ACV30 equipped with 35mm air defence gun variant will be displayed in Aselsan stand during IDEF 2013.
