Hello hello!
First started this mod on .5 i believe, was about 13 or 14 years old, fast forward to today I'm currently in the USMC infantry, been in for a little over a year now. Looking forward to getting back into the community! I would also love to give assistance if I can, I am very familiar with every weapon system the infantry has to offer with the exception of the M2 mark jav and mortars. My specialties are LAV 25 A3 *M242 20mm and LAV AT V2 *TOW and ground mount

If you have a question, I have an answer!

YAT YAS!

I have a question, if you can change anything about the LAV-25 in PR as compared to RL what would you do?

well it has been a while and i haven't had the chance to touch one in game today. But from what I remember, I would change these things because we can do this in RL
6 scouts in back
VC Gunner dual control of cannon
VC Gunner dual control of pintle mounted 240B
Better traction and better uphill climb.
Up armor is unit SOP for all vics.
tire deflation/ changing tires.
Ammo resupply from vic
driver DVE *thermal sights
can carry up to 600 extra 20mm rounds

-Currently it does carry 4
-No pintle mounted M240, but it seems kinda silly if you already have coax
-Tire deflation/changing is not possible with engine I believe
-Driver has thermal sights in game
-Currently it carries 60 + 120=180 AP rounds and 150+300= 450 HEIT rounds
-I think it can drop ammo if your'e the driver
Dunno about the uparmor, I suppose no one volunteered to model it on the vehicle yet.

And what do you mean by "dual control" by the vehicle commander?

Something funny I noticed about LAVs is their current ability to operate in the sea in Saarema and Pavolsk Bay, when that is left to the Amtracks.

I'm a Reservist with an Amtrack company, and I've brought up issues in compared to its RL counterpart but alot cannot be changed due to engine limitations or gameplay purposes. But I don't see why not the capacity should be increased to 6 if you can fit that many combat equipped Marines in the back.

the 240B is so the VC can get some, feel like it would make this aspect of the game more enjoyable, also something i forgot to add is that LAV 25's have armor ontop of the turret similar to what humvees have. Like you said this will take someone to model it. For the dual control I mean control of the turret, main gun, and coax. The VC can switch control from gunner to VC with a flick of a switch. This helps with better target acquisition.
