  • 英國陸軍： AMV^XP投標MIV計劃（MIV）[20]
• 
  • 保加利亞陸軍：The Patria AMV and more recently (as of 2017) Patria AMV^XP is a strong contender for the order in the new Bulgarian project for a new type of wheeled IFV.[21] The project initially called for a total of 238 vehicles in different variants (of them 100 in combat variant, the rest in combat support (reconnaissance, combat engineer etc.) and combat service support variants (MedEvac etc.)). In the end of 2016 the Bulgarian Ministry of Defence re-examined the conditions and out of budget considerations reduced the number of combat vehicles to 90. Additionally the requirement that the combat, CS and CSS variants should be of one standard platform was dropped. The new baseline of the project calls for 90 combat vehicles and 108 supporting vehicles for a total cost of 1.22 billion BGN or about €600 million. RfI-letters have been sent to General Dynamics Land System – MOWAG (for the Piranha V and the 潘德2型裝甲車), NEXTER Group (for the VBCI裝步戰車), Patria Oy (for the Patria AMV and Patria AMV^XP, both have been demonstrated in the country[22]), Rheinmetall Defence AG (for the 拳獅裝甲車), Textron (a joint offer together with Rheinmetall Defence AG for the 拳獅裝甲車 in the combat role and Commando Select assembled in Bulgaria in the combat support and combat service support roles. Textron also offered its own 6x6 prototype in the combat role, but due to its still unproven status it is considered the weakest alternative), Iveco-Leonardo Defence System (for the B1 Centauro in the updated 120mm B2 version) and Krauss-Maffei Wegman GmbH (also for the 拳獅裝甲車). In the beginning of 2017 the defence minister in the Gerdzhikov caretaker government has decided, that RfI-letters should be sent to 7 additional companies, but of them only Otokar (for the Arma), FNSS (for the Pars) and WMZ (for the KTO Rosomak) were credible contenders. The forerunners in the competition as of the end of 2017 are the Piranha V, the Patria AMV^XP and the Otokar Arma. Patria Group has expressed willingness to involve Bulgarian defence sector companies as subcontractors in the production not only of eventual Bulgarian vehicles, but also for export markets.[23][24]
