The competition to pick Australia's next IFV is over. We are picking the Hanwha Redback(a modified K21) over Rhinemetall's Lynx.
The Redback(or rather the K21) is a lot lighter than the Lynx at 25.6t compared to 34-50t, it has a better Horsepower to weight Ratio and it can carry 9 dismounts compared to 6/8 for the lynx.
But there are probably trade-offs in secrets things like armour protection or sensors or something.
