A new Hungarian Lynx KF41 Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
The replacement of the old Soviet BTR 80s with the Lynx KF41 was inaugurated as part of the Defence and Military Development Program. The newly acquired vehicles were transported to Hódmezővásárhely, Hungary, where the retraining of the first crews began in Sept 2023. After an initial phase of driving training, the crews progressed to live firing exercises, successfully demonstrating their ability to engage both stationary and moving targets.

Impressive
Armament
The vehicle as shown at Eurosatory 2016 was outfitted with a Lance turret[14] mounting a stabilized, externally powered, autocannon of 30 mm or 35 mm caliber, with airburst munition support. This allows the Lynx to engage targets at ranges of up to 3,000 meters, both when static and when on the move. The vehicle's main armament has an elevation of between +45˚ and −10˚ and has a controlled rate of fire of 200 rounds per minute. Mounted coaxial to the right is the latest Rheinmetall Machine Gun (RMG) 7.62 mm, which can fire standard 7.62×51mm NATO ammunition and has a maximum rate of fire of 800 rounds a minute.
