IDF armored forces captured two of these French-built infantry combat vehicles during Operation Peace for Galilee (1982). They were apparently abandoned by the Lebanese Army.
AMX VCI Infantry
Combat Vehicle
The AMX VCI is a 1960s vintage French armored personnel carrier. The vehicle's hull is structurally identical to the AMX-13 light tank and the Mk F3 155mm self-propelled howitzer. The main entrance to the passenger compartment is a large drop ramp in the rear of the vehicle. It could carry 10 infantrymen.
