Notes
1 - In 2011, the Danish military began the search for a common replacement for remaining M113 and Piranha vehicles. Trials were to select a common vehicle that would be either wheeled or tracked. Projected totals of 600 were for one or the other, depending on what configuration is chosen, not both. In 2015, 309 wheeled vehicles were selected.
2 - These totals may include some number of self-propelled variants.
3 - These aircraft were transfered to the Air Force in 2003.
