The Pindad APS-2 or APS-2 (Indonesian: Angkut Personel Sedang-2, lit.'Medium Personnel Carrier'), also known as APS-1V1[1] is an armored vehicle made by Pindad. It is a further development of the APR-1V 4×4 wheel drive run by BPPT and Pindad.[2]

The results of this development and refinement resulted in APS-1 with 6×4 and APS-2 6×6 wheel drive, with a chassis derived from Perkasa trucks.[3][4]
