Good point with the carry capacity. Even if you made the crew part of the squad ( which is unlikely ) you are still 2 men short of a standard squad and it doesn't quite work by loading it with fire teams either. ( unless you stretch it 3 feet )

So I suppose the next question to ask is what is being considered that carries 13 troops and is tracked and if the answer is nothing then what ??

Also, one requirement is water speed and even at best the water speed for the Havoc is a game 4 which isn't all that swift compared to the EFV........ON THE OTHER HAND.. the EFV held 17.....how exactly was that going to fit the USMC TO&E ?

I really don't have much time work is on my near horizon, however this should answer your questions starting around Page 171. It gives you everything on equipment status. Only glanced over it but, it looks like it'll take two vehicles to transport what's being called a "reinforced rifle platoon" the timeline might not make it game inclusive but, I'll watch it. This brings into the limelight in the previous section what is being done to upgrade the AAV-7. Lots of good stuff in here from the FY 2013 end of year review.
