Russian Bumerang APC

If you are going for the APC Variant, you could use a Boxer with a .50 CAL RWS. It has a similar speed, the same caliber weapon system, and carries the right number of dismounts to be believable (8). It also looks somewhat like the Bumerang, in the fact that it is a boxy shape with eight wheels.

 

The IFV version is trickier, and really is based on if you want wheels, or missiles.

 

For wheeled, you could use the NZLAV-IFV. The number is dismounts are correct, and the speed is similar. However, you will not have missiles, the armor is *probably* thinner than what you are looking for, and the cannon is only 25mm.

 

For tracked, a BMP-3 would work with some "professional pretending." You need to get rid of the ability to fire 100mm rounds (ammo loadout would probably work), but you have a 30mm, a 7.62mm, and missiles. Also, it carries seven troops, so the number of dismounts is believable. The main disadvantage is obviously the appearance. 

 

In short, the APC variant shouldn't be hard to approximate; the IFV will probably require some sacrifices somewhere.
