+1 This should have been the Premium instead of the C&P Type 16 (FPS)

Definitely. A way more interesting model than just the regular Type 16 with snow chains and a tiny bit of camo netting, and only getting M735 would at least make a little more sense.

This the same MCV equipped with a winch.

This feautre is finally included with the Type 16 that are manufactured from 2020 known as C5 especially the armored recovery variant.

My C5 suggestion is currently on pending.
