While it used to include a few unique features, such as a fully remote machine gun on the rear deck and gun ports on the sides for infantry to fire through, these features have been deleted or streamlined in later upgrade packages to bring it more in line with modern IFV design. Developed as part of the rebuilding of West Germany's armoured fighting vehicle industry, the Marder has proven to be a successful and solid infantry fighting vehicle design. It has been operated by the German Army as the main Panzergrenadiere IFV from 1970s through to the present day. The Schützenpanzer Marder 1 ( German pronunciation: " Schützen" carrying "Armour"-ed fighting vehicle " Marten 1") is a tracked German infantry fighting vehicle designed for use with the West German Panzergrenadiere units, mechanized infantry specialized for IFV combat.
