The Puma is a very lightly armoured but nevertheless successful APC in use with a number of Mercenary companies. It features a remotely controlled weapons system and carries a full infantry squad over a variety of terrain.

The command version, though unarmed, offer the same level of mobility and protection. These vehicles are now generally replacing wheeled APC's where possible in most Mercenary units.
