This is my "next generation" adaptation of the Marine LAV. As if there
aren't enough variants of the chassis already, I decided to give a go at
building one last year as my second model after finally getting space to
create again.

mounted .50 caliber machinegun for the commander. Unlike the typical LAV,
mine has no room for transporting troops. The linkage for the 8 wheel
opposable steering (vs 4 wheel steering on the real one) required that I
relocate the engine to the rear, where it's centermounted on the real LAV.
