These versions really make me happy, because thats enough for whole 7th mechanized brigade, plus reserve pieces to replace damaged ones (broke down in peacetime or destroyed in war). Also both combat units, engineers and medical unit will get new unified IFV/APC

That all means 2 things. 1) Thanks to reserves there will be greater operational readiness and unit can replace some of its losses. 2) Because all needed versions are bought in one procurement, there is lower unit price and whole 7th will be rearmed in one single step

All CV-90 will be equipped with Czech-made multispectral camo nest and also about 60 IED jammers are bought as part of the deal. Czech industry will produce turrets, cabels, optics, sensors and more and final completion of CVs and testing will be done domestically by VOP CZ. 5/x
About 30 companies of Czech defence infustry will participate and some of them will also become part of production chain for all CV-90, both present and future users. About 40% of the industrial share will be done by Czech defense industry companies. 6/x
Czech Republic also gained CV-90 license, thanks to this Ambulance and Artillery recon versions will be developed and produced by Czech companies, also service of new IFVs will be done domestically. 7/x
As part of current deal, there is also short-term service, sets of spare parts, training and small batch of ammo for initial training and testing purposes
Contract for service of IFVs with Czech defence industry and contract for more ammunition will be signed later on. 8/x

Czech Army already has some 30mm and Spike ATGM in stores, since it is using this ammo for its Pandurs II CZ wheeled IFVs

About these 29 mobile workshops to keep CV-90s operational in field, most likely it will be something like T-815-7 D 8x8 that is already used for Pandurs of 4th rapid deployment brigade.

Together with new signals and command Titus 6x6, new logistics T-815-7 8x8 and 6x6, infantry modernization and of course Leopards 2A8, 7th brigade will be the modern backbone of Czech Land Forces (also new self propelled mortars, VSHORAD and C-UAS will be bought)
