Subject: Project Waler
Aussie Matt    1/3/2005 9:14:54 PM
In the mid 80's the Army started a project to replace the M113 with an Aussie designed and built armoured vehicle, it was to be called "Waler". It never got past the embryo stage because of the argument of "track-V-wheels". What would you like to have seen come out of this project? ie numbers made, different variants, armament, T-v-W. Remember it was a mid 80's program so no electric armour or VLS systems. Now assuming the production would have started about 1990 and an in service date in the early 90's, we would now be looking at developing "Waler MK2". What would your MK2 look like?

Around that size, depending on the model. They tend to be longer and narrower though.

Is there any information as to what the vehicle may have looked like either with or without tracks?
