General

The TPz 1A7 is a survivability upgrade to TPz 1A3/A6 vehicles for Bundeswehr missions abroad. This upgrade consists of a "modular armor package" of MEXAS composite armor on the exterior surfaces, full spall lining, enhanced mine protection, and a more powerful 6-cylinder Mercedes-Benz engine. Additionally, the modeled version includes a shielded gun mount not included as part of the original upgrade.

As with the TPz Fuchs 1A6, this vehicle is fully modeled.

The dismount section for the Fuchs is 8 men, equipped with M136 (AT-4) light anti-armor weapons, an MG3, and 5.56mm rifles.
