US LCAC Carry Capabilities.
 

I recently tried to load some US Marine Corps M1A1s onto some LCACs; and found that they were too heavy to load onto the LCACs.

Looking in MOBHack it seems that the default weight limitation is 40 tons; rather than the 70 tons in real life; is this a deliberate limitation by the OOB designer to prevent gamey use of the LCAC; eg using it as an uber landing craft over and over?

FYI, a LCAC can carry:

12 HMMWVs per sortie (48 tons at 4 tons each vehicle)
4 LAVs per sortie (56 tons at 14 tons each vehicle)
2 AAVs per sortie at (56 tons at 28 tons each vehicle)
1 M1A1 per sortie (67 tons)

They are set at carry class 2 - 40 or 240.

And the number is not "tons" - it is just a number for weich class. M1s ar carry class 50, from a quick browse.

Max size for a byte would be 255.

Try increasing LCAC to 250 and see if it works. (Barge is at 254 alreasy and LCAC probably should be similar).

Yep; increasing LCAC capacity to 255 via the Scenario editor works.
