The Bayard is a limited use armored vehicle with a full tracked suspension. Its armor is not intended to withstand direct fire by anything larger than a machine gun. It carries a light infantry howitzer with a gun shield on a pintle mount at the forward end of the open passenger compartment for support of the squad, and has mounting brackets at the rear of the passenger compartment to allow the squad's light machine gun to be carried in a firing position.
