AZMİM will be operated to move earth, clear terrain obstacles, cut steep slopes and stabilize stream banks for easy river crossing of combat vehicles during Turkish Army's amphibious warfare.

[2] The contract to develop the armoured amphibious bulldozer was signed on March 10, 2009 between the Ministry of National Defence and the FNSS.

The project, which began to develop on June 15, 2009, foresees the production of twelve units until the end of 2013.

AZMİM is equipped with daylight camera system, night vision device, multi-purpose LED display and air conditioner.

Two installed pump-jets enable the amphibious bulldozer to conduct a 360 degrees turning movement in rip current waters.
