Historical information
The Panhard AML-245 is a fast, long-ranged, and relatively cheap first-generation armoured car with excellent reconnaissance capability.
Designed on a small, lightly armoured 4X4 chassis, it weighs an estimated 5.5 tonnes — much lighter than a tank — and is therefore more rapidly employable. Since 1959 AMLs have been marketed on up to five continents; several variants remained in continuous production for half a century.
AML 20 was Irish Army version which replaced the AML 60 armament with a 20mm cannon.
