On another note - beautiful model!
because its not at all realistic for LAVs to launch out of amphibious assault ships like they currently do in PR. Yes the LAVs are amphibious, but they are more designed for being able to cross rivers and whatnot, not travel in oceans and land on beaches. That is the job that the currect AAV7 does and the EFV is going to replace it. Honestly I think PR has been dying for a proper amphibious assault vehicle for a long time now.

this left projector wouldn't be visable in 1p model
Its only visable in geom1 Lod 0 so if u are standing next to it u can recognize in witch direction the gunner is looking.
like the driver cam of the Fennek

This is very good, I wish you luck with this project and hope for it to make it into PR 0.9! It'll definitely be a great addition in terms of realism and gameplay and you're not alone to want realistic landing crafts ; PLANM faction is also making its own.

I know, but the AAAVs will be replaced by the EFVs sooner or later.
Or is there any other vehicle which could replace it?

I have heard no such thing. There is money in this years budget for the EFV and afaik its still green lighted.
Keep up the great work on this model. Its a shame the AAV is just now getting ready to go in game. Maybe the DEVs can just use both.

Lol

this thread was totally dead, never thought that anybody was interested in it anymore...

yes i can try to finish it but i don't think that PR needs more than two kinds of vehicle for the same purpose.
It was my second model with 3ds max and i really improved in the last 2 years... I think

so... if you want me to give it a try tell me. Plz DEVs say definitively yes or no so i will not waste my time
Ps.: i would totally overhaul the whole model
Cheers;

If your skills really have improved, like you say, then I would recommend PMing an Assets Manager, such as Chuc or Fuzzhead and ask them what needs to be done.
I know that OPFOR, specifically the PLA, is in need of some lovin'.
