"EE-9 Cascavel" for Iraqi Army (Updated)

While looking up MRAP news I found this little story about Iraq obtaining the EE-9 "Cascavel" armored vehicle. First I've heard of this one (following military hardware is a relatively recent and part-time hobby for me).

The Cascavel ("Rattlesnake") is manufactured by Engesa, a Brazilian firm from what I can tell.


Update:

How about a little YouTube video of the Cascavel in action?
