The Strider CV-90 Combat Vehicle is a family of tracked, armored combat platforms modifiable for a range of uses produced in Meckelnburgh.
The vehicle was designed by the Meckelnburgh Advanced Research Production Administration (MARPA) as part of "Project Strider" in the mid- to late-1710s. The project sought to fill a procurement gap in the equipment of the Meckelnburgh National Guard (army) where various roles of armored vehicles, such as armored forward command vehicles, were unavailable on the international market. The Strider CV-90 platform is designed to fill this gap, and includes native configurations for nine roles, including: armored personnel carrier, mortars and vehicle recovery.
MARPA first produced trial models of the Strider CV-90 in 1721 AN. After successful testing and adjustments, in 1723 AN, the Strider CV-90 combat platform began accepting orders, with first expected fulfillment scheduled in 1724 AN. The first orders came from the Meckelnburgh National Guard, as the sponsoring agency.
