The AIFV Mowag Trojan was built as a prototype and tested in the New IFV program NSpz for Switzerland in 1990. The NSpz was intended to replace the M113 used by the Swiss Army. It was first equipped with the Steyr SP 3E/300 turret, and later with the Oerlikon GBA COA turret. It was equipped with various technological innovations such as outside lying fuel tanks, preheating and heating system, compartmentalized additional armor on the sides, which could be easily upgraded, splinter protection in the interior and s hydraulic rear ramp with integrated door and side protection. Due to financial shortages in the military budget, procurement should be begin with almost 10 years delay. MOWAG was not able to keep the production for the Trojans so long unused. Mowag participated no more in the second, later selection of NSpz, now called Schützenpanzer2000 (SP2000) in 1998 to 1999. The Swiss Army then purchased the Swedish CV90. The Trojan was the last tracked vehicle made by the company MOWAG. The Trojan was until 2005 owned by the company MOWAG. It is now at the Military Museum Full.
