STORY

The APC-23 Valiant Squirrel is an armored troop carrier developed by the Neruetro military in 2019 and officially adopted in 2023.
It is part of the "Valiant family" based on the Valiant Hawk, an armored vehicle with high performance and multitasking capabilities.
The APC-23 is available in two types Type A with an AF-14H/V 12.7mm machine gun mounted in the turret and Type B with an MPGL-32 40mm grenade launcher.
The Nerdistro Army had previously adopted American M1126 Stryker armored vehicles as armored personnel carriers, but political pressure and procurement costs were often cited as problems. The Valiant Squirrel has received high praise from the military, especially for its spacious interior, which can carry a variety of items and is highly comfortable, and has even been called "an armored car that doesn't need motion sickness medication "
The Valiant Squirrel has been adopted only by the Nerue Toro Army, the Neruetro Fire Department, and the Polish Army, and although it is considerably cheaper than the Stryker, its cost remains high.
