The M2 With TOWs will be in for the US Army at some stage. The Marines do not use any Bradley variants and will stick with the LAV-25. And until there is an LAV-AD modeled, they'll probubly keep using the Bradley Linebacker as their AAV.

What about putting back TOW launchers on the LAV-25 and changing them to fire Stingers instead?

The LAV-AD has a completely different turret to the LAV-25, with 8 stinger tubes and a 25mm vulcan cannon.

Actually, Bob, that's a GAU-12 "Equalizer" 25mm cannon (fires the same round as the M242 Bushmaster). This weapon is also found on the AC-130U Spooky (soon to be replaced with the 30 x 173mm Bushmaster II) and the Harrier II. I think the Army should have just stuck the Blazer turret of the LAV-AD on the Linebackers if they were unsatisfied with their performance, but I'm sure they had their reasons.

	The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough. El_Vikingo: Bob_Marley, the level 70 pimp, will satisfy your needs. Many thanks to the Forum's no.1 hottie for the sig pretties.
