The Luchtmobiel Speciaal Voertuig (LSV) is a small, open off-road vehicle that can be transported by air. It is specifically designed for, and used by, the Dutch Airmobile Brigade of the Royal Netherlands Army. The LSV is nicknamed affectionately 'playmobiel' (Playmobil) by Dutch soldiers.
The vehicle consists of a tubular frame with a polyester body, it has two seats and an open load area. It does not have a crumple zone and is therefore perceived as unsafe under peace conditions. The LSV has an automatic gearbox and a permanent all-wheel drive. The engine is from Peugeot.
There are 3 types of the Luchtmobiel Special Voertuig (LSV) in use by the Royal Netherlands Army:
  • General service (AG), which are used, for example, for the transport of connecting means and ammunition;
  • Wounded transport (GWT), used for transporting wounded soldiers or civilians;
  • Anti-tank (AT), these are used for transporting anti-tank weapons and the associated ammunition.
