Default Re: APC Development and related topics.
It's looking like the carry capacity issue for the AAV/SU may solve itself.

The USMC is considering eliminating the anti-tank squad of USMC infantry companies (currently 6x SMAW teams) and issuing the M3A1 MAAWS (i.e Carl Gustaf) as a squad level asset (replacing the AT4 in current WinSPMBT units). The SMAW may be retained in engineer units as currently the M3 doesn't have a thermobaric round.
