The B-IW Brytisc is an armoured personnel carrier formerly in service with the Confederate Brytisc Fleet, of Zerinfriom origin. It was retired in 1990 following the introduction of the FV81 Tiger.
The B-IW Brytisc was lightly armed and was built to be lightweight, with an array of smoke launchers to improve survivability and speed. The vehicle was designed to be deployed from AAV vessels, and was equipped with engine snorkels and water jets.
Armed with a turreted 30mm autocannon and a 7.62mm coaxial machine-gun, the B-IW/B was designed to be able to provide covering fire for its passengers and poses a serious danger to lighter armour, but it was not designed to take on heavier vehicles such as MBTs.
