Don I know Andy and you are
very busy smoothing out any lingering or last minute issues however, would you consider one for your country? One of my first go to sites just posted this today the
LAV 6.0 and it looks impressive.
This is a stand alone vehicle and not an LAV III model per say. I estimate it will enter service in
Jan./Jun 2018 based on the issues raised in the below refs. and it looks like a LAV III on steriodes. Protection level to include calibers noted. I would put
TI/GSR out to at least 45. As compared to the LAV III the LAV 6.0 is 9 tons heavier with the add on armor pkg. and w/o still 3.5 tons heavier.
As quoted from Ref. 1 "
Currently the LAV 6.0 is one of the most protected armored personnel carrier in the world."
And if that's not incentive enough...Those "
Hosers" Bob and Doug McKenzie might feature you on their show or better yet drink a case (or 2 or 3...) of their favorite Canadian brew in your honor!?!
Here's what I got...
