The First Win is a Thai mine-resistant ambush protected infantry mobility vehicle with an all-welded steel monocoque V-hull produced by Thai defense contractor Chaiseri. The First Win is designed to provide high level protection against a variety of battlefield threats, including mines and improvised explosive devices.[1] Gross vehicle weight is about 9 tonnes (20,000 lb) and it can carry up to 10 troops plus the driver.

Chaiseri hopes to export the First Win to foreign customers.[2]
