--In 1978, the French Army presented the specifications of a wheeled armored vehicle with a weight of 3.5 tons or less that could serve as both a reconnaissance and information gathering and a tank destroyer equipped with a MILAN anti-tank missile. A competitive trial was conducted between Panhard and Panhard, and as a result, the Panhard body was adopted.
