Wintertiger Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 MX-8 AEV [Armored Escort Vehicle] Philippine Army The AEV is manufactured by Steelcraft, it is originally designed as an escort vehicle for the Philippine Army. With limit funds and assets, the Philippine Army went to Steelcraft for a possible project. The Army wanted its Simba Mk.3s , V-150s and M-113s removed from escort duty as they are to expensive to operate for such a mission and that they are needed else where. There are three prototypes that were made, people from the Philippine Defense Forum referred to the first one as MX-8 AEV Mk.1. The photos here shows the improved MX-8 AEV MK.2 The third prototype is called MX-8 Mk.3 which is currently under going evaluation with the Philippine National Police.
