The FV721 Fox Combat Vehicle Reconnaissance (Wheeled) (CVR(W)) was a 4x4 armoured car manufactured by Alvis, deployed by the British Army as a replacement for the Ferret scout car and the Saladin Armoured Car. The Fox was introduced into service in May 1973 and withdrawn in 1993/4. It is armed with a 30MM Rarden Autocannon (not modeled due to gun sizes) and a coaxial 7.62mm Machinegun. My one also comes with a ATGM which i saw in some game concept art and thought would be pretty cool.

Wonderful! The game concept art was likely from a game called “Armored Warfare” in which the fox had two atgm’s ready and could hold an additional 6 inside. (I would highly recommend that game, its not very popular at the moment.)
