Bushmaster
Notes: The Bushmaster was designed as a successor to the S-600, for use in the Bushranger Infantry Mobility Vehicle competition. As the other vehicle was of South African design, and the chances of a ship making it from South Africa to Australia were less certain as the war progressed, the decision was made to adopt the Bushmaster as the new IMV. The Bushmaster features all-welded steel armor that has no rivets to pop loose on a vehicle hit. The vehicle has an anti-mine design, and the vehicle is considered to have 3 points of additional armor above the highest armor value against mines, and the suspension has an additional hit value against mines. The vehicle is designed for long-range patrols with large fuel tanks and ample stowage, including a tank for 270 liters of drinking water. There are doors on either side of the cab, one on the rear, and bulletproof windows in the sides, as well as a roof hatch.

S-600
Notes: This is an Australian-made light wheeled APC based on the Unimog 1550 or 2150 truck chassis. Two versions are available, the Infantry Mobility version and the Internal Security version. The vehicle is made of all-welded steel, and there are no rivets in the armor to pop loose and ricochet around the interior in case of a hit by enemy fire. Left-and right-hand drive versions are available; currently, the right-hand drive version is used by Australia and the left-hand drive version is used by Kuwait. On both sides of the hull is a two-part hatch for crew entry, and on the rear is another hatch. The roof has a hatch for the commander, and with this hatch is a weapon mount (NMT/NHT-compatible). An air conditioning system is standard. A spare tire is carried on either side of the hull rear. The tires are run-flat.
