Israel's Eitan 8-wheeled AFV

Has anyone seen a comparison of the new Eitan AFV with the Boxer, Striker, or any other 8-wheeled AFV
I know it will be forever before a kit comes out, but the wheel spacing and suspension is close enough to other similar 8-wheeled AFV’s to be a base to start from.
Just using the “mk 1 eyball” the VBCI, the CM-32, & the Boxer have suspension, wheel spacing, and hull layout that might work.
Anyone out there thinking about doing an Eitan

The IDF did evaluate the Stryker, but it was reportedly rejected due to insufficient protection.

It’s a travesty there is no kit of the Eitan, which has entered production…
