New Zealand Army Pinzgauer Armored Vehicles take over in Timor
Australian Army M113A1 Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) have been an important part of Australia's mission in East Timor since they were first used to secure the Dili area when INTERFET inserted in 1999.
Between 2006 and 2009 the APCs were used to carry the Quick Response Force (QRF) that is made up of Australian and New Zealand infantry who are dispatched to deal with any outbreaks of civil unrest in the capital.
This task has been passed to the New Zealand Queen Alexandra Mounted Rifles who are able to transport the QRF in Pinzgauer armored light operational vehicles
