Don is it safe to assume you have the
USA 30mm STRYKER for the game handled for the next patch? First units were to ready by
Dec. 2016 according to JANE's. I would personally use
Jan. 2017. Haven't seen anything anything to this point to disrupt that time frame. The 30mm version being in limited numbers will also be up armored slightly from the current ones in the OOB as applique armor is to be added. Also they all will be
SYRKYER's with V-Hulls so there should be a modifier for crew survival possibly considered.
Also the current in game
STRYKER's should reflect the same starting about
Jun. 2014 or
Jan. 2015 (Same for the
USMC for their
LAV's were modified as well with V-Hulls I thought around this time frame as well.) if memory serves for a "
new/modified" unit to be added to the OOB.
If you've got this one, I'll post all the refs I have for these units and clean out my APC folder//work-list of this unit. Please let me know at your convenience.
ICON looks great!!

Pat

An issue I'll still be tracking for the USA/USMC Light/Heavy Armor:
http://www.armyrecognition.com/june_..._10906162.html
The USMC
LAV-AT new turret:
We had some debate about this vehicle when I submitted info to support it's continued fighting status for the USMC. It appears the newer version (
UNIT 018 LAV-ATA2) will need a date modifier based on this next ref. something along the lines of Jun. 2016 but, I think
Jan.2017 as a better date to allow for our "swag" based on the
completion date of this contract. We do get a better look at the turret though and it has plenty of smoke grenade launchers as well as being
better protected then the EMERSON Turret also with a better FCS as well. Also
UNIT 027 LAV-ATA1 end date will need to extended out to match the new start date for the above
UNIT 018.

Not as much as I thought, which already means I've posted the rest in this thread.
