The Panhard ERC 90 Sagaie is a six-wheeled armored vehicle utilized by the French military. Notable for its amphibious capabilities, the ERC 90 is highly maneuverable and designed to be impervious to nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) threats. Out of the ninety models tested, only two— the Sagaie and the Lynx—were selected for production.

The primary distinction between the Lynx and the ERC 90 Sagaie lies in the turret and the installed 90mm gun. The term "sagaie" refers to an African spear, reflecting the vehicle's name. Since its introduction in 1975, several hundred of these 8.3-ton armored vehicles have been produced, and they are occasionally featured in French military parades.
