The system is based on the GDELS ASCOD (Austrian Spanish Co-Operative Development) chassis which is currently deployed in the infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) role by Austria (as the Ulan) and Spain (as the Pizarro).
A small number of ASCOD have also been supplied to the Philippines including 18 Sabra light tank, one command post and one recovery vehicle via Elbit Systems. A total of 42 were recently ordered from GDELS by Latvia
