It´s also candidate for UK CVR-T replacement .

And it uses many COTS components , including Bradley´s roadwheels , Scania truck engine , Bushmaster cannon and so on .
Okay, how many in service? How many have been used in combat cersus the BFV (which has seen combat into the thousands.)? WHat is its combat record against other armored vehicles?

Again the CV-90 is a pretty good vehicle but I would not give ti super higher marks over teh M2A3/M3A3.
