 | | One thing about IFVs like their predecessor, the armored personnel carrier (APC), they have proven to be quite versatile vehicles. |
 | | Not only did it spawn off numerous variants (anti-tank, ambulance, mortar carrier, command post, anti-aircraft, and cargo vehicle among them), it even became an IFV for Turkey, the Netherlands, the Philippines, and Belgium when a turret with a 25mm cannon was placed on, replacing the 12.7mm machine gun. |
 | | In addition to the slightly under-armed IFV (M1126), the Strykers variants include a reconnaissance version (M1127), a 105mm assault gun (M1128), a mortar carrier (M1129), command post (M1130), fire support (M1131), engineering support (M1132), ambulance (M1133), anti-tank (M1134), and NBC reconnaissance (M1135). |
