Interesting article posted on the Armored Warfare front page about the LAV-105, read here.
The boiled-down summary; Cadillac Gage (now known as Textron Marine & Land Systems) fabricated and installed a two man turret, based off the Stingray Light Tank (which is also manufactured by them) on a Canadian licensed built Swiss MOWAG Piranha 8x8 chassis (known as the Coyote Reconnaissance Vehicle) from General Motors Diesel Division (later renamed GM Defense, then subsequently purchased by General Dynamics Land Systems).
At some point in the future, depending on tier and price (if it is not made into a reward vehicle, lord help me), I am seriously considering getting one of these.
