The Stryker Interim Armored Vehicle (IAV) family was introduced to fill a US Army capability gap for a rapidly deployable armoured combat vehicle that required minimal logistical support and featured state-of-the-art technology. For this purpose, a new type of troop formation was created that did not exist before, namely the so-called “Medium Force”. This was to close the capability gap between light infantry units and heavy tank brigades.
For the first time this publication grants an overview over all Stryker variants, from its ICV basic model up to the most recent additions to the family.
