Malaysia is in discussions with FNSS to purchase the six-wheel-drive AV6 (also named PARS) for replace the Condor 4×4 wheeled armoured personnel carrier.

The AV6 program is part of a manufacturing partnership agreement with Turkey’s FNSS Defense Systems and is based on the FNSS-designed PARS (Leopard) multimission wheeled vehicle.

Today Malaysia develops and produces the DefTech AV8 8×8 locally based on the design of the Pars.
