Since entering service in 1999, the Kodiak has been produced to the tune of 650 examples, all handled by General Motors Land Systems. The most popular LAV III in service today probably remains the American "Stryker" series as that unit has seen extensive action in Afghanistan and Iraq. The Stryker features a remote weapon station in place of the standard turret. Other variants in the Kodiak series include a command vehicle, anti-tank guided missile carrier and an artillery forward observation vehicle.
