Developed: 2013
Service: N/A
Vehicles Built: 1

The K21 XC-8 is a modification of the South Korean K21 IFV, replacing its original turret with a Belgium-produced Cockerill XC-8 one to produce a fire support variant of the series. The vehicle was presented at IDEX in 2013 as an affordable alternative to expensive Main Battle Tanks for countries with plenty of rough terrain, but was never adopted by any military.
