Collimatrix Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 There's a version of the stryker that has 'em too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belesarius Posted July 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 There's a version of the stryker that has 'em too. Do you have a link or pics? I haven't seen that. I wonder how many they'll strap on to a turret? The jav isn't that big... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collimatrix Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 I haven't found a picture. It is mentioned here, and it sounds like it might not be mass-produced yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike E Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 I don't get this at all...let wheeled APC's be wheeled APC's, and tracked APC's be tracked APC's. One should not replace the other, rather compliment it. Same goes for IFV's. Is Russia really the only country that understands this? Kurg-IFV & Kurg-APC, Bumer-IFV & Bumer-APC, heck...even a heavy-IFV. - Also, replacing APC's with IFV's... I didn't know this until now, but the Boxer is actually *cheaper* than our Stryker.

Scolopax Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Is that the first vehicle mounting the Jav? There's a version of the stryker that has 'em too. As far as mounts go, the Piranha V has been tested with the Javelin as well, and it seems the Indian Kestrel will also carry them.

Tied Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Replacing the Gavin with a expensive wheeled APC? What the hell is it with people thinking wheeled and tracked APC's are interchangeable Mike E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
