VC “LAV” Light Armored Vehicle

Description
Favored among VC ground command, the LAV is well equipped to engage a variety of targets with a reasonable probability of success and crew survival. The LAV can be crewed by as few as one, but it can accommodate up to four. This gives the LAV a modest troop carrying capacity as well.

Because the LAV’s are often expected to bear the brunt of danger, they are often covered in spare parts, and boast a substantial cargo capacity to store even more replacement components, and, of course, ammunition.

The LAV’s internal repair welder and vehicle repair projector work together to simultaneously repair all three turrets and the forward cockpit when needed.

The LAV is able to achieve reasonably high speeds safely and corners quite well considering its mass. It uses the same stability system as the scout car and ARV but its heavier frame means it cannot skim the surface if it rolls. This deficiency is made up for, however, by its wider and more stable wheel base, meaning roll-overs are less likely. However, under the right conditions, they are certainly possible.

Specifications:

•Mass: 135,558 kg
•Power: 3 batteries and 1 large reactor
•Stability Systems: 4 gyroscopes and 4 small atmospheric thrusters
•Weapons: 1 Gatling turret and 2 missile turrets
•Cargo: 4 medium cargo container (Equipped with basic tools, weapons, ammo, and materials for repairs)
•Crew and passenger capacity: 2 driver and 2 passenger

Systems:

•Oxygen tank
•Beacon
•Antenna
•Back-up light and camera
•Headlights
•Side flood lights
•Vehicle repair projector
•Internal auto-repair welder
•Spare tires, weapons, and suspensions which can be broken down to repair vehicle
•External air vents

Oh ya, I could see the dump truck thing from certain angles now that you mention it. Thank you for the kind words, and thanks for checking out the LAV :)

I love this truck I know its not but it reminds me of a big dump truck from certain angles. Great work man you always do a great job with all the land vehicles I've seen from you, and other ships to but your land vehicles always impress me the most. :)

I've tested it and it handles well, despite its size. The spare parts and tires attached to the sides are also a great detail and very useful for field repairs! Thank you for bringing inovations to SE.

There are two cockpits on the sides – you can see them between the front and middle tires (the backs of them). And there is one more cockpit slightly hidden behind the turrets, above the spare tires.
