Looks awesome. The Brits finally get to provide their own AA cover! :D

Also, how do you plan to implement the star streak what with its crazy splitting missing and no explosion and general oddness of it all?

wow this vehicle looks like its 100 percent done, modelling wise anyway. way to keep it under wraps lol.

as for the avenger, there already is one in PR, i think its borrowed from another mod, but you can see it in the PR version of gulf of oman.

Yeah this thing looks great. But the USMC dose not use the HMMWV version your talking about they use the LAAAV. Gow cannon with Missile launchers on one or both sides. It's a good weapon and is anphibous.

You mean the LAV-AD? Sounds like the USMC got rid of it -

LAV-25 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
* LAV-AD (Air Defense)

LAV fitted with an electric turret mounting a 25 mm GAU-12 Equalizer gatling cannon, and two, four missile pods, which contain FIM-92 Stinger SAM (Surface-To-Air Missiles). It carries 990 rounds of 25 mm ammunition, and 16 FIM-92 Stinger missiles. This variant has been removed from service.
However included in this list of vehicles of the USMC is the M1097 Avenger.

I'm just wondering how the Stormer (fantastic work there BTW) and Avenger will be balanced with the MEC and PLA AA vehicles.

1 seat or 2?

If I remember correctly all the AAVs will be 1 seaters, since 2 people would remove too many people from the fight for such a specialized role.

Yes, it was retired. It was put in BF2 because DICE/EA couldn't be bothered to do research and just put in what looked cool to them.

The USMC no longer uses the LAV-AD, and is disbanding its Avenger units. Their low-altitude air defense will be based entirely on Stinger MANPADS until the SLAMRAAM is fielded.
