Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV-30): Replacing the USMC’s Venerable AAV

I’d love USA getting some auto cannons that arent AA but we defiantly need the LAV-25 first or along side this.

Wheeled vehicles are fun 👍

Same turret as the French VBCI-2 (MCT30) recently added, re-usable asset 👍

Something to fill the gap in the techtree between the M60A2 and the M1128 👍

40mm gun and ATGM (and APS?) upgrade would be cool to see as modifications or variants

Yes absolutely. Really need something similar to Russias 2S38 & bmp etc with their rapid fire that destroys us in 2 seconds. Although they are smaller vehicles with lower profile and can move through cities better, LAV - 25 and the above mentioned still would be nice to have if it’s our only options with autocannons etc.

Honestly wouldnt this go after the Bradley as its an IFV/AAV?

I just cant see it after the M60A2 as its not a TD. I think the LAV-AT and LAV-105 should go there

They might just do tracked on one side and wheeley boiz on the other. Either way it both works.

Oh yeah completely forgot about that side. May fit better there. 👍

I didnt realize there was a tracked model! Id love for it to have the javelin too.

Also, damn this forum feels so empty compared to the last one. Confusing too. Bums me out

Sorry I didn’t mean it like there was a tracked or wheeled variant. I was saying they could do wheeled vehicles such as the ACV-30, M1134, and M1128 in line 5 and have the tracked IFV’s such as the Griffin III, Bradley’s, etc. in line 1.

I do agree the ACV-30 should come with Javelin’s though. It’s a unique way to add the javelin since not many vehicles use it. Especially since the ACV-30 is actively used by the USMC.

Wow, so we can actually copy previous suggestions and paste it to the new forums. Oh boi.

Yeah this is one of my suggestions from the old forum. I transferred it as a test to see if it would copy over right but it didn’t. The bullets got messed up and I had to remove some extra characters.

The original author can directly copy there suggestions but people can’t copy other’s work directly and post it on the new forum.

I’m just waiting until the pause on suggestions is lifted so I can port over my suggestions, its a shame that so much will be lost tho

Have they mentioned when will the restrictions be lifted? It’s been weird we can’t make suggestions in the new forums.

No mention yet. They’re still getting things set up.

would love to see this im assuming if it gets both stingers and javelins they’ll be swappable like the LAV-AD?

also how were you able to post this if the suggestions are locked still? just wondering

Probably got it in right as they closed them

they’ve been closed since they went to this new format though?

I did it right before they closed it. Kinda turned into a trial post

ah okay well good job I have to wait until they open it back up to suggest the stinger equipped Bradley(it is a real thing before someone says something look up the linebacker) as either its own separate vehicle or a modification to the Bradley
