Fallout Re: APC Development and related topics.

It's time to start tracking the USAs Ground Combat Vehicle (GVC) program. The GVC will be the first combat vehicle designed from the ground up to fight in an IED environment. Reportedly it'll offer a higher level of protection then is currently available with current MRAPs. The players are in place for the competition. We'll see and you decide.

This will be an interim fix until the GVC gets fielded, which might also replace the BRADLEY.
