The South Korean company Hyundai Rotem has announced plans to create an enterprise in Poland for the production of the N-WAV 8x8 wheeled Armored Vehicle (Next generation Wheeled Armored Vehicle), which was presented at an exhibition in Seoul in October this year.

As indicated in the publication Army Recognition, the length of the machine is 9.1 m, width 3.1 m, body height 2.8 m, which, taking into account the tower, increases to 3.5 m. It weighs about 35 tons. At the ADEX 2023 exhibition, the N-WAV was demonstrated in the configuration of an infantry fighting vehicle armed with a remotely controlled combat station with a 30 mm Mk44 Bushmaster II automatic cannon, 7.62mm and 12.7mm machine guns, dual PU for ATGM. The crew consists of 3 people, the landing party consists of 8 fighters.

At the same time, there are other modifications, for example, a fire support vehicle equipped with a 120-mm cannon and an automatic loading system, or an armored personnel carrier with the placement of 10 infantrymen.

During the presentation published on social networks, Hyundai shared its plans for the export of N-WAV manufactured in Poland. According to the infographic, Warsaw is considered as the main buyer of the armored vehicle (the expected demand is 1.5 thousand units). Also, N-WAV may be in demand in Hungary to replace the BTR-80 and in Bulgaria, which still has over 600 BTR-60s, not counting the BRDM. Slovenia may be interested in the car. There is also a calculation for the non - monetary market:

Ukraine is in great need of an 8x8 BMP. The fleet [of its equipment] is subject to replacement at the end of the war

- it says in the presentation.
