{{Stub}} {{Vehicle infobox |image = CAFlav3.png |armaments = |operators = [[Canadian Army]] |maps available = TBA }} The {{PAGENAME}} is an [[Vehicles|Armored Personnel Carrier]] (APC) featured in [[Squad]]. It was introduced in the B21 update for the [[Canadian Army]]. == Vehicle Infocard == [[File:LAV III Infocard.jpg|center|frameless]] == General information == The LAV III, is the third generation of the Light Armoured Vehicle (LAV) family of infantry fighting vehicles built by General Dynamics Land Systems, first entered service in 1999. It was developed in Canada from the LAV II family and is the primary mechanized infantry vehicle of both the [[Canadian Army]] and the New Zealand Army. It also forms the basis of the Stryker vehicle used by the US Army and other operators. The LAV III is powered by a Caterpillar 3126 diesel engine developing 350 horsepower (260 kW), and can reach speeds of 100 kilometers per hour. == Statistics == <tabber> |-|LAV III M2A1 RWS= ===Performance=== {| class="wikitable" !Vehicle Name !Class !Ticket Cost !Available Faction |- |LAV III M2A1 RWS |Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) |10 |[[File:Flag of Canada.png|link=Canadian Army|23x15px]] |- !Crew !Passenger !Ammo point !Construction point |- |0 |10 |600 |0 |- !Respawn Timer !Max.

In both looks and function, it is very similar, if not equal to the [[M1126]] APC of the [[US Army]]. Due to still being a quite rare and thus new ingame-object to most, it should be noted that the term "LAV" doesn't automatically refer to an APC armed with a [[M242 Bushmaster|25mm Bushmaster]] autocannon: In Squad, the LAV III is the only LAV-family that is armed with smaller caliber weapons. The LAV III [[M2A1]] RWS. It is armed with the exact same .50 caliber [[M2A1]] CROWS as the [[M1126]] and [[M-ATV]] CROWS, with an additional pintle-mounted [[FN_MAG|C6]] general purpose machine gun for the third seat. The LAV III [[FN MAG|C6]] RWS. Instead of the [[M2A1]] .50 caliber heavy machine gun, this variant has a [[FN MAG|C6]] CROWS general purpose machine gun with 750 rounds along with the pintle-mounted [[FN MAG|C6]] general purpose machine gun for the third seat. The [[FN MAG|C6]] machine guns for the third seats only have a limited traverse towards the front of the vehicle, while the CROWS machine guns can rotate 360 degrees. They share the same UI as the one used by the [[M1126]] APCs and [[M-ATV]] CROWS. As stated, the LAV III functions almost in the exact same way as the [[M1126]], just with an additional gunner's seat. This can give the LAV III an advantage when fighting enemy infantry, picking off unarmored vehicles like trucks, and even popping the tires of wheeled vehicles. The second gunner is exposed however, and only has a limited frontal traverse. And as with most machine guns, the LAV III's machine guns can overheat with sustained fire. It is therefore a good idea to fire the guns in bursts to always keep them cool. The LAV III is a non-amphibious APC that has a strong resemblence to the [[LAV-25]] and the other four LAV variants featured in Squad. The [[LAV-25]] and [[ASLAV-25]] are the only two amphibious variants. ==External links== * [[wikipedia:LAV_III|LAV III on Wikipedia]] == See also == * [[Canadian Army]] * [[Vehicles]] {{Navbox vehicles}} [[Category:Vehicles]] [[Category:Armored personnel carriers]]
