History
In the early 1990’s, Australia established Project Bush Ranger. The idea behind this project was to support an infantry group of nine (9) men for a three-day operation. Development was not without difficulties, but the Bushmaster has matured into one of the premier, light mine-protected vehicles in service world-wide. 299 vehicles have been built in 6 variances, with additional contracts pending. Vehicles have been in Afghanistan, as well as purchased by the Royal Netherlands, British, and Danish armies.
