The KF41 Lynx is a modern IFV design from the German Rheinmetall company, exported to the Hungarian Army. On 31 July 2024, the Hungarian army received its first KF41. The order was for 209 KF41s to be delivered in seven variants, ranging from the regular IFV, command variants with improved communications, all the way to medical transports and mortar carriers. By 2024, it is expected to receive 46 KF41s in the first delivery batch. The production of the vehicle was set up in a production plant in Zalaegerszeg with 51% investment from Rheinmetall and 49% from the Hungarian government.
It was introduced in Update "Sons of Attila" as part of the Hungarian branch of the Italian tech tree. The KF41 invites comparisons with the PUMA VJTF IFV; they are both heavily armed and armoured IFVs with good mobility and much heavier and bigger than their counterparts like the BMP-3 and the American Bradley IFV, but in reality they couldn't be any further apart. Unlike the PUMA, the KF41 focuses on maximising its scouting potential and is optimised for combat centred around fire-and-forget ATGMs by having a unique AMAP-ADS hard-kill active protection system, as well as a high amount of smoke grenades. In doing so, the KF41 sacrifices aspects of the PUMA, like the unmanned turret, soft-kill APS, and ERA/NERA. Because of this, it is extremely vulnerable to attacks that the hard-kill APS cannot stop. Nevertheless, thanks to the Spike ATGMs and extremely good commander sight, it is a capable support vehicle and extremely potent capture point defender, being able to achieve long-range kills with its APFSDS and ATGM against both tanks and helicopters. For the latter threat, it can also utilise its AHEAD rounds from the 30 mm autocannon which are more capable at dealing with air threats.
