She does look "beefed up" compared to the standard AAV. But here's what the USMC has to say about it. Looks like I spotted some shock mounting in the mechanical part (Don't think they're the "mains" though?) of the video. We live and die by that stuff on the boats.

You will find in this next video from SAIC one of the IED tests conducted on the
AAV SU which is it's official designation as noted in the USMC ref above.
Already has a name isn't that special?
