“The AMX 10RC is amphibious with a maximum speed of 2m/s in water.” The TK 105 and TML 105 turrets use a mantlet sight, which is firmly linked to the movements of the gun for firing accuracy.
There are two turret configurations for the AMX 10RC: the TK 105 turret with light 105mm gun or the TML 105 turret with 105mm NATO standard gun, both manufactured by Nexter Systems. They allow the exchange of digitised data, including the tactical situation and graphic orders displayed on a background map, between the vehicle and the squadron command vehicle. The system connects the weapon systems and the squadron command vehicles equipped with them to the chain of command.

Renault Trucks Defense is prime contractor and has responsibility for marketing of the VAB. It was determined that Giat would be prime contractor and have responsibility for marketing of the VBCI, the AMX 10P and AMX 10RC. However, in September 2003, it was decided to wind up this company. A new company, Satory Military Vehicles, was set up by Giat and Renault with responsibility for the AMX-10RC and a number of other vehicles including the VAB series.
