General
The Bushmaster is an armed, armoured truck intended for internal security, counter-insurgency, and other low intensity warfare.
The armour is thin, and lacking a heavy weapon this vehicle is very vulnerable to most threats. It should only be used for direct fire in support of its dismounted infantry, or in emergencies. It is however survivable against IEDs and other mines, using hull shaping and isolation of the crew from the hull to provide much higher survivability than conventional light vehicles. The Bushmaster is equipped with individual rally-style seats and cooled drinking water, to enhance the dismount's continued effectiveness in hostile arid conditions by enhancing their comfort during movement.
This vehicle may be equipped with the Lemur remote weapon station.
The dismount section for the Bushmaster is 10 men, carrying 2(4) M136 (AT-4) light anti-armour weapons.
