  Most MBT with a big gun has 7 road wheels.
  
  The picture of the "Bionix" with the big gun showed 7 road wheels; while the picture of the "Bionix" with the cupola 0.5 HMG, has only 6 road wheels.
  
  What is it doing in "snow" country ?

  That is not a bionix, is a CV40 from swenden.

  wrong, its CV90-30, Norwegian version with 30mm Bushmaster II. The swedish ones carry 40mm Bofors. Oh, and by the way, I once saw this vehicle behind Sungei Gedong, back in '93, when I was doing my BMT. (I'm from Armour).
  It was most likely to be on trials back then, with parts of the vehicle covered up in canvas.

  Hmm........I thought I saw one here as well years ago as well, but I didn't know what it was back then. It was covered in red dust and mud from the training grounds - could as well be a Bionix prototype back then.
