This helped to bring other nation's engineering prowess to the forefront as was the case with the Finnish "Patria Pasi XA - a 6x6 wheeled armored vehicle serving in the Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) role. The Pasi XA (originally recognized as the "Sisu Pasi") was developed to a Finnish Army requirement for a modern APC that included an inherent amphibious quality.
