In 2015, the Puma began to replace the Marder infantry fighting vehicle. It is now considered the most powerful and modern infantry fighting vehicle in the world. Digitalisation and comprehensive networking, state-of-the-art optics, camera systems and sensor technology enable early detection of camouflaged targets and their acquisition even at distances of up to three kilometres. The 31-tonne armoured vehicle which can weigh up to 50 tonnes with scaffolding offers its crew unprecedented protection against mines, anti-tank weapons and improvised explosive devices: a detailed documentation of the highest order.
