Wish I had an answer for you Mirolslav.

That is pretty cool though, now even the Marines are putting slat on their LAVs.

Whats wrong with me, I like the LAV so much better then the Stryker...oh well

HHMMM? Looks more like a Coyote (lav-25) then a LAV (striker)?

You could be right.

How can you tell the difference between a Coyote and an LAV?
And if it was a Coyote then it would likely be Canadian correct?



Coyote has external muffler on hull, so does LAV 25 but they are longer i believe. LAV 3 has no visible external muffler.

These do resemble Canadian vehs.

The caption under the picture on miltaryimages.net says "Patrol of Australian Light Armoured Vehicles".
