It looks like they've cleaned up the turret a little. New sight?

Wow the photo on the TOW being fired is really amazing.

am just curious if the wheels are the ones that propells the vehicle in water?

The LAV III series as used by the U.S.(Stryker), Canada(LAV III), and New Zealand(NZLAV) does not swim.

It can ford about 1.2 metres.
