 The Saxon wheeled APC was developed by GNK Defence to provide a relatively low cost armored personnel carrier for the British Army. It was an economical supplement to the much more sophisticated and expensive Warrior tracked infantry fighting vehicle. The Saxon is a very basic infantry carrier. It is based on a revised Bedford M series 4x4 truck chassis and other commercially available components such as the engine and transmission. Developed from the earlier and less protected AT104, the base model was the AT105 which later became the Saxon before being ordered by the British Army in 1983 to provide United Kingdom-based infantry battalions to travel to North-West Europe in an emergency and still retain a measure of operational protection and mobility once arrived.
