from Wikipedia: The Rooikat ("Caracal "; literally "Red cat") is a wheeled armoured fighting vehicle built in South Africa for the South African Army . It was designed for combat reconnaissance and seek and destroy operations. Its secondary roles include combat support, anti-armour and anti-guerrilla operations. The Rooikat is intended for deep penetration missions, so the wheeled design was needed for speed and to counter sandy desert conditions that might slow tracked vehicles. Mounts a 105mm main gun.
