Well, it's a known fact that Strikers are useless junks. And they also cost a lot of money. More and more I'm amazed by how much waste can exist in the US military weapons acquisition system.

[BlueHawk7269]

well that sucks.

[truckerher]

Then ur screwed!

[longbody01]

They make a good fishing platfom

[fitch12345]

8x8 wheel drive, completely useless!

[Jimderkaisser]

The LAV-III was selected by the Liberal Party in 1996 because Jean-Chrétien at this time had cancelled the contract with Swedish for the CV90. The CV90 was supposed to be used has a Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV) and transport carrier (because he can transport guess 6-10 soldiers). The LAV-III was selected because he was cheap...and look what happened to Canadian Forces in A'stanl...112 KIA and 300 WIA.

The LAV-III/Stryker and all wheeled vehicle is a piece of garbage.

[Shakeyboat1]

i'll get out 'n' push!

[unknowneuropean]

lol

[aleksankazakov]

the wheels are to small for such a big armored car !!!!!!!!!

[gianstrabo]

get a winch and a ground anchor ffs!

[blackhawk250]

Thats shows one advantage the army's bradley m3a3 has over the lav-25

[Dudtz]

Bradley is too heavy.

[nomorenarcissism]

Wheeled trucks were ambushed and didn't make it to resupply the 3rd ID (M) en route to Baghdad. Fortunately, we had some more trucks and supplies to push through in the nick of time. Non-linear war requires non-linear logistics which means TRACKED resupply vehicles that can go cross-country and avoid roads.

[Ounouh]

Fail.

[soldier871]

this would suck if it was your only cover and incoming mortars or artie is being shot at you.... you would end up a dead....

[foderahead]

There goes 10 million.

@nomorenarcissism depends what u wanna do on roads always better on mud diffirent story they should try to go on mud with wheels and a vehicle that size and weigth anyways an idiot can tell you that unless theire tires can dig in far enough to get traction but they cant because the lav is too low lying to the ground

[JadeDragon007]

this is for all of you ignorant hicks. the top brasses of the arm forces are corrupted the give contracts to those that bribe them. this means that soldiers are going into battle with NOT THE BEST GEARS POSSIBLE. OK?

[21StCenturyWarfare]

american piece of shit

[nomorenarcissism]

Actually LAVs are Canadian-made of a Swiss design operated by incompetent Americans

[AmericanPride202]

Well that is pretty extreme mud

[nomorenarcissism]

PLANET EARTH has pretty extreme terrain with extreme mud; COMPETENT militaries use tracks so they can stay mobile not get stuck in wheels, or should we ask the enemy for a cease-fire until the weather gets better?

[larry2208]

take a look at mud in russia, this is nothing

[owenbreon]

the german PUMA would be a goof idea .. instead of those wheel "LAV"s

or the spanish austrian ULAN

[BlacktailFA]

"The wheels on the bus go round and round - round and round - round and round..."

Too bad the bus can't go anywhere.

[Auldyguy]

better get out an push

[pandeche3]

needs tracks!

[rusak24]

Who is this Canada?? doesn't matter go buy a BTR-90 it will solve all your problems.

[MrMushroom123]

owned by mud

[MaDDogyyy]

i needs bigger tires like a TAB or BTR

[nomorenarcissism]

Replacing $1, 000 LAV rubber tires are making us go broke, fatter tires are even more vulnerable to molotov cocktails and punctures while not solving the LAV's basic inability to go off-road without getting stuck

[tonjes21]

stryker really sucks

[ibigdevil]

frist it is not a Lav 3 , or striker, it is a coyote, or lav 2, it has less give and less clearence, and a smaller engine then the newer lav 3, and it is not as wide and long, you can tell by the amount the turet over hangs, vs the lav 3 it does not

[nomorenarcissism]

Its a LAV-1 with a 25mm turret on it. Supersizing LAVs have not made them cross-country mobile.

[kiwibigboy]

stuck in the shit. excuse the pun. back on track soon. lol.

[01e9]

BTR-90 on much better, than this dust!!!

[Tankerpaul223]

Nothing better then a good set of tracks, They do build a Personel carrier with tracks, the M113, and the M2/3 bradley, who cares about them though, it dont mean a thing untill your shooting 120mm sabot rounds.

[nomorenarcissism]

almost right, but large cannon don't win over locals with civic action or suppress like machine guns or root out hiding enemies like men on foot delivered by infantry-carrying tanks.

[jim135666]

that sucks so bad.. im not gettin out and pushin

[lamancha2]

It'd be interesting to see what happens to the towing vehicle they bring, to tow the Stryker out of the mud.

[mastersteamtug]

STRYKER LAV III Will be realised to be a US ARMY equipment failure & force expedinture disaster, only after the fat cat Retired Generals who work for the corporation that builds them have lined their pockets !!!

[rp1dmc]

That sucks. Why dont they build a tracked apc.

[garamanth]

They did. The M113 is one.

[deadeyeselh]

we have tracked apc in afghanistan

[ORFdaGOD]

Canada uses the TLAV which is a modified M113A3 APC. The new TLAVs have slat armour, new remote weapon systems, new powerplants, etc... my fav version of the M113 is the TUA variant. It has a TOW missile RWS on top.

[saikotikgunman]

Forget these Strykers and Hummers for desert and off road use.  The Super Gavin is much more resistant to IEDs, better armored against RPG strikes, and is tracked, enabling for off-road travel in a manner that makes it harder for insurgents to predict routes of travel and mine them.

[hunt247]

Yes the updated M113 with the RPG armor, rubber tracks, upgraded engine, upgraded electronics and so on incorporates all the advantages of the wheeled Strykers, but on top of that, it has a much great off road capabilities and sits at a lower profile. The rubber tracks & big engine allow fast road travel (i.e. not as good as the styker).

[nomorenarcissism]

We have vehicles with steel tracks going faster than Stryker trucks do now, if you want to be stupid and speed down roads its a function of horsepower and rolling resistance; band tracked M113 Gavins are faster than Strykers in ALL terrains

[hunt247]

Yea, the Gavin rout seems to be better and cheaper. Well we got some fast road warriors now. lol

[nomorenarcissism]

Road Kill victims

[sorpentologi]

Buy the finnish PATRIA XA-360 P1 it is the best!

[nomorenarcissism]

The U.S. Army already owns 246, 000+ wheeled truck road land mine targets too many

[americaneagle1967]

lavs are canadian pieces of shit..bradleys far better and made in america>>

[nomorenarcissism]

M113 Gavins are even better than Bradleys, but you have the right idea--TRACKS are better than wheels for military uses

[kevo201]

see thats why canada is now going back to track's they're way fuckin better when ur in the mud or in the sand. wheel's are good in some areas for like road travel but it also can make those LAVIII's top heavy so . i can't wait for the new tanks,

[joshybrown17]

well yes but the wheeled LAV III are good but yes the wheels are a bit fucking anyoing when going aabout throught sand

[nomorenarcissism]

Good for what? Presenting reliable targets to rebels with land mines?

[gohoda]

pathetic... GIS got pawned by the Military Industrial Complex

[OperationAnime262]

ha lol not so FEARSOME AFTER ALL!!

[eddysili]

SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­
