since alot of faction got kinda like an "heavy apc"[BMP3,M2A3,etc..] and a "light apc"[BTR60,Stryker,etc..] i wanna suggest the LAV3 RWS for Canadian Force as a light APC, basicly a "Stryker" but with the gun on the other side of the hull pretty easy since R-Dev already have a Stryker model, just a green texture and a displaced gun and its fine
But the LAV3 and the Stryker are visually different. You would need to model the differences. Canadian Forces need some decent weapons before it moves on to more vehicles.

you do understand that the LAVIII is ingame right now?

Just got to take the LAV 3 model we have now and take off the bushmaster and add a M2 RWS on top. Shouldn't be too hard to do, good comparison though the Canadians do need a 'light' APC
Or May be the new M113A3 TLAV, it have been retrofit with a new engine, RPG cage, a new interior, new thermal, longuer hull ( it now have 6 roadwheels rather than 5), extra armor plate, it have a GPMG and a HMG in it's turret.
Here's a picture i take :

Hotrod, I am not sure if you know this but they are currently in Canada for training and familiarizing the soldiers, so I see know point in adding it. One thing that could be included is Strykers under Canadian control because in Afghanistan a division of Strykers is under Canadian Command.

Not sure you understand, they haven't been deployed yet, maybe they will be deployed with your unit it is under familiarization. Maybe they have but to my knowledge.

Trooper Rudd die inside a LAV 3 RWS 3 weeks ago in Afghanistan. So they are currently deploy.

IF he is in the canadian forces learning how to use it right now as we speak he would know better then you if they are deployed or not.

I found this sentence quite funny and since this is a war game forum I will put it here. No offense to the french just a good laugh.

There is no "IF" i'm in the C.F., i'm doing my qualification on it, and i known they are used in A-stan and i can prove it in so many ways.
Back on topic, LAV3 RWS and/or M113A3 will be a pretty good add to C.F. into P.R., they could be used in INS & AAS game-mode. Both can easily been done by tweaking existing model in P.R.

Will the M113A3 be as bad as the IDF's one? blows up with one RPG to the side where it looks like it has 6 inches of steel
