  Are you refering to another report?
  
  Becos the old one said that the first experiment was Oto Melara (Hitfist) 120mm gun turret on Bionix hull which encountered some problem.
  
  Next was the proposal UDLP was 3 different hulls, Bionix, UCVP or M8 AGS hull with:
  
  1) with original M8 105mm gun turret,
  
  or
  
  2) Thunderbolt 120mm gun turret.
  
  So is there a new report???

  I thought they mated the Bionix and the UCVP platform to form a hybrid, then slapped the Hitfist onto it? I didn't think it was just a normal Bionix platform..
  
  Hmm.
  
  I have heard of the M8 proposal..but there isn't much news on it.
