Source measurement	—	The vehicles were built by the FMC together with several Dutch companies such as DAF and Philips . The division of labour was that FMC built the chassis of the vehicle, while DAF was responsible for the interior and constructed the 227 specially designed turrets that were equipped with a 25 mm Oerlikon KBA-B02 cannon. In addition, Philips designed the fire control system of the YPR-765.
