New Zealand implements Australian armored wagons

New Zealand plans to get for its army 43 copies of Australian production of MRAPs in the form of Bushmaster. [It presently has 18 pieces, which were delivered last May. They were originally to be implemented in structure 1. Land Army Brigades until the end of 2023, however, these assumptions were not met.](https://defence24.pl/power-arms/new-zeland-receives-first-bushmasters) This is expected to happen soon, although this is likely to mean a crucial hold within the full programme. Ordered Bushmasters are intended to let the replacement of armoured variants of Pinzgauer wagons, providing a higher level of protection for transported soldiers. The interoperability of fresh Zealand units is besides expanding with, for example, Australians, which besides benefit from their Bushmaster missions.
