I was talking about the TLAV. In terms of TAPV, I dont really see any path for repurposing them. They just arent suited for much beyond patrolling. Id sooner see them sent to Svc Bn and MPs than repurposed into something theyre not. Theres plenty of options on the market for a lightish wheeled...

Theyre way too clapped out. Time to let them die.

Looks like upgun - autocannons and ATGM lol. Probably so CARBs have "armour" for the armour squadron.

Oh boy, theres a team working on a plan to upgun the TAPVs...hilarity will ensue.

There is no road. It currently ends just North of Gilliam near the hydro dam. Theyd have to push a new road a couple hundred kilometres through the swamp.

Do they still run the weekend shuttles to Winnipeg for leisure?

Too true.

Orders are orders...

Crewmen issue a lot of pistols at all levels. Drivers, CCs, sometimes gunners in tanks plus all SNCOs and up generally. The chest holster attachment is pretty popular amongst us.

Howd they look? Any impressions?

This is outside the realm of my understanding to be honest lol. I know it can carry a surprising amiunt of load haha.

Im not sure which Zetros variant the LVM L is based on but from what Ive found on the Zetros tech specs, 11.6T on the 4x4 chassis. https://special.mercedes-benz-trucks.com/en/mercedes-benz-defence-trucks/technical-data/model-overview/zetros.html

Please, no more lol. Real talk though the LVM light cargo would be perfect for the reserves. Something ML size is all we need. Give me a cargo, a flatbed or LHS for ammo and fuel and a fitter/CP/workshop variant. Good to go for our needs.
