The Griffin III IFV demonstrator was built in 2018 and unveiled at the AUSA 2018 expo in Huntsville, Alabama. The whole vehicle weighed less than 40 tons and was only lightly protected, but what made it really interesting was its two-man experimental General Dynamics turret co-developed with ARDEC and armed with a 50mm XM913 Bushmaster chain gun by Orbital ATK. The vehicle protection was enhanced by the presence of a laser-warning system, an Israeli Iron Fist hard-kill APS as well as with a next generation Tacticam camouflage system by Armorworks. This camouflage is special by not only concealing the vehicle visually, but also thermally (veiling its heat trace) and acoustically (making it quieter).
Vehicle Traits[ | ]
- Harder to Spot: When moving slowly, this vehicle does not lose any camouflage and can effectively creep around.
- Autocannon Only: This vehicle is armed only with a (usually more powerful) autocannon.
- Recoil Stabilizer: This vehicle's gun allows you to fire several projectiles at one spot. Each successive hit of the burst has an increased penetration value.
- Active Camo: If the vehicle is not moving, it receives the same bonus to its camouflage as if it was concealed behind a bush.
- Unmanned Turret: This vehicle features a remotely-controlled or low-profile turret that receives reduced damage.
- Troop Compartment: This vehicle features a troop compartment, allowing you to repair your modules faster and to capture objectives more effectively.
