guidance=The Xa-180 is a six-wheeled armoured personnel carrier (APC) originally designed for the Finnish Defence Forces. The first version was produced in 1983 and serial production began in 1984. The basic design was based on easy usage, simple basic structure and low cost maintenance. The basic appearance and configuration is similar to most wheeled APCs. In 2005 Estonia purchased a large amount of "Xa-180"s from Finland.
