EBRC Jaguar

A 6x6 wheeled armored reconnaissance and combat vehicle developed by KNDS France, Arquus and Thales as part of France's SCORPION modernization program, replacing the AMX-10RC, ERC 90 Sagaie and VAB HOT. It pairs a 40 mm cannon with MMP guided missiles in a common CTAS turret shared with the EBRC and future platforms.

Full specifications

Performance

Speed, range, altitude and engagement capability.

Performance specifications
Max speed Maximum level speed. For aircraft this is at optimal altitude; for ground vehicles, top road speed. Higher means faster response and better kinematic performance.	110 km/h Stronger than 89% of IFVs
Range Maximum distance: ferry range for aircraft, operational range for vehicles, maximum engagement distance for missiles. Higher means more standoff or persistence.	800 km Stronger than 89% of IFVs

Firepower

Armament, payload and guidance.

Firepower specifications
Main armament Primary weapon: main gun, cannon or missile type.	40 mm CTC (CTAS) automatic cannon
Secondary armament Additional weapons: coaxial MG, remote weapon station, gun pods.	7.62 mm machine gun
Caliber Bore diameter of the main gun or rifle. Larger throws heavier projectiles; not simply better, ammunition commonality matters.	40 mm

Protection

Armor, countermeasures and survivability.

Protection specifications
Armor Armor technology: composite, modular, ERA-fitted, uranium-ceramic. Exact compositions are classified.	Modular composite armor

Physical

Dimensions, weight and crew.

Physical specifications
Combat weight Fully loaded weight. Lighter eases transport and bridging limits; heavier often means more armor.	25,000 kg
Crew Personnel required to operate. Fewer reduces exposure; autoloaders trade a loader for mechanical complexity.	3

Propulsion

Engine, power and fuel.

Propulsion specifications
Engine Powerplant model and type.	Renault DXi 7 diesel
Engine power Engine output power. Higher moves more weight faster.	490 hp Stronger than 55% of IFVs
Propulsion type Turbofan, turboshaft, diesel, gas turbine, solid-fuel rocket, ramjet…	Diesel

Program

Cost, production scale and operators.

Program specifications
Operator countries Number of countries operating the system. More operators means broader support ecosystem.	1 Stronger than 23% of IFVs
