Any idea on whether accurate
drawings are available or ... "gasp" will an injection kit be out on the market anytime soon?

As of right now, there are no public plans to bring out a Stryker in any scale in plastic. There was a rumor about one coming out in resin but no further word has come out. There are plans for an LAV Gen III out there but the LAV Gen III is not exactly a Stryker. There are plenty of pics around (Armorama has a walk around of one and there is also a nice set of pics at globalsecurity.org). I'm sure there will be more people chiming in on specific differences between Stryker and LAV III (all of them much more knowledgeable than I) so I will leave that to them.

Actually, the Stryker is a LAV Gen III. What LAV Gen III kit is supposed to be coming out? I only know of the Trumpeter LAV-25 coming out soon. It is a LAV Gen I as used by USMC, not a LAV Gen III vehicle.
Here is a good example of the LAV Gen I (LAV-25) and LAV Gen III (Stryker) in a side by side shot.

Gino, unfortunately there isn't an LAV III coming out but there are drawing plans and schematics available of an LAV III AT (I actually have a copy thanks to Trackjam). Sorry about the confusion.

No problem. I think I caused the confusion by reading your post wrong. Thanks.
No harm, no foul.
