3 Cougar bought Poland 40 on loan from the US United States Blackwater USA US Army US Navy US Marine Corps US Air Force The Cougar is used by the United States Armed Forces and Iraqi Army and has now entered service with the British Army In service with those countries the Cougar is used in a variety of roles including the HEV Hardened Engineer Vehicle and the Joint Explosive Ordnance Disposal Rapid Response Vehicles JERRVs while in service with the US Marine Corps US Navy Seabees and US Air Force RED HORSE Polish Army Cougars in Afghanistan Compared to the original Cougar vehicle the British Forces variant will be fitted with large vertical armor plates which cover the large vision blocks and weapon firing ports This is in line with British Army doctrine concerning the role of the APC MICV specifically that it is to carry troops under protection to the objective and then give firepower support when they have disembarked The Mastiff will be fitted with a turret sporting either a L7A2 GPMG General Purpose Machine Gun the FN MAG 7 62 x 51 mm L110A1 Light Machine Gun 5 56 x 45 mm or a L11A1 Heavy Machine Gun 50 inch 12 7 mm BMG Browning Machine gun 40mm automatic grenade launchers or even a 50mm cannon One aspect of the British Army s approach to APC MICV units which differs to that of the United States is that ability of the average soldier to fire accurately out of the ports of a moving IFV has been questioned The large armour plates will also give added side protection from RPGs or IED explosions The British Army has operated an early version of the Cougar
