Key facts

Lynx IFV family

Rheinmetall describes Lynx as a next-generation tracked infantry fighting vehicle family with modular role kits and an open digital architecture (Rheinmetall Lynx).

Lynx KF41 Recce variant

Rheinmetall announced a Lynx KF41 Recce combat vehicle version at Eurosatory 2026 as an addition to the Lynx family (Rheinmetall Lynx KF41 Recce).

Lynx page prints a 6.43 cubic meter crew compartment

Rheinmetall's Lynx page prints a 6.43 cubic meter crew compartment for 3 crew members and 8 soldiers even with an unmanned turret. The standard configuration prints a Lance 2 turret with a 30 mm main gun and optional anti-tank missiles, and family commonality prints more than 70 percent. The stored modular-architecture sentence is not this volume cell (Rheinmetall Lynx).

Lynx page prints Hungary's 218-vehicle contract

The same page says Hungary signed a contract in 2020 for 218 vehicles and 7 variants, and that the Zalaegerszeg plant opened in August 2023. It also prints an Italian plan to produce 1.050 vehicles until 2040 through the Leonardo Rheinmetall Military Vehicles joint venture. Those order cells are not the stored Recce announcement (Rheinmetall Lynx).
