Historical Reference
The ERAC 105 Proto was a project for an amphibious armored reconnaissance vehicle (French: engin de reconnaissance amphibie de combat) from the early 1960s. A working prototype was built in 1963. The vehicle combined low weight with significant firepower and could ford wet gaps. Its advantages included high crossing capacity over mud and snow, while its aluminum alloy hull offered better protection than most amphibious vehicles of that time. Despite positive trial results, the ERAC 105 Proto did not enter service due to economic reasons.
