| Introduced in 1976, this Yugoslavian MICV appears to owe its design to the Soviet BMP, and its components to the AMX-10P.
The general layout of the hull, which is constructed of 20mm steel plate, is almost identical to the BMP with the transmission in front, driver behind
alongside the engine and the commanders position behind the driver with a central one-man turret and a personnel compartment behind it. The turret,
where fitted, is thought to be constructed of 30mm steel plate.
The commanders position has a 360° cupola with an IR spotlight above his single large periscope.
The hull roof over the troop compartment is higher than the BMPs and incorporates a number of hatches, persiscopes and firing ports depending on the
variant. The two large rear doors, which unlike the BMPs do not contain any fuel, have a vision block and a firing port installed in each side.
