The BVP-40/Igv 40 Panter (Serbian: Borbeno vozilo pešadije ;BVP; Dutch: Infanteriegevechtsvoertuig ;Igv) is infantry fighting vehicle co-developed and built by Nikolian and Noordenstaatian joint venture company NORNIK Group. The first production of the vehicle started in 2011 with the initial order of 400 units for Nikolia and 300 units for Noordenstaat, while additional orders were placed for a total of around 2,500 units to be produced. The Panter is a result of a successful, long lasting partnership between Nikolia and Noordenstaat that produced several other military vehicles and hardware now in use by both armies. Thanks to its powerful 800kW (1,100hp) engine, providing for high power-to-weight ratio, the Panter is fitted with additional armour plates and state of the art protection systems, which makes it one of the most protected IFVs in the world.
