Perhaps those were the originals. The PSU BEML is working -pitching- for the same contract in which the Axe is a contender. Apparently they are in the fray with AM General Corp of USA as their partners.
It seems that the americans now have no problem in exporting the Humvee, as it is slotted for replacement (by Stryker) as it was a classic sitting duck in Iraq. The hapless former SoD Donald Rumsfeld was openly challenged by some GI's about the capabilities of the HumVee...
Lets hope M&M will win this arms race.
