Overview
The M1126 Infantry Carrier Vehicle is an armored personnel carrier variant of the Stryker family of vehicles. It provides protected transport and supporting fire for infantry squads.

History
In 1999 V.C., The Army Chief of Staff outlined a transformation plan for the Army that would allow it to adapt after their experience of the M113 APC in the 1st Encantadia War. The plan, named "Objective Force", would have the army adopt a flexible doctrine that would allow it to deploy quickly, and be equipped for a variety of operations. An early phase of the plan called for the introduction of an Interim Armored Vehicle (IAV), which was intended to fill the capability gap between heavier and heavily armed, but not easily deployable, vehicles, such as the M2 Bradley, and easily deployable vehicles that are lightly armed and protected, such as the Humvee. The General Motors Defense–General Dynamics Land Systems team was awarded the $8 billion contract in 2000 V.C. to produce 2,131 vehicles of a variant of the Zemurian LAV III by 2008 V.C.
