Mowag has delivered to the Danish Army its first Piranha 5 eight-wheeled infantry combat vehicles, which will finally replace the service’s 60 year-old M-113 armored personnel carriers, as well as Eagle 5 light armored vehicles.

After 55 years in the Danish Defense and Four Updates, the classic M113 armored personnel carrier was finally phased out for the benefit of the new Piranha 5 vehicles. Together with the also new Eagle 5 armored patrol vehicles, they will constitute the rootstock of the construction of the new Danish armored brigade.
