History[ | ]

Class: Fire Support Vehicle
Developed: 1962-1963
Service: 1964+
Vehicles Built: cca 3000 (incl. all versions)
Operators: Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Egypt, Thailand and more a dozen other smaller customers

The V-150 (or LAV-150) was a version of the extremely popular Cadillac Gage Commando platform, intended for export. This four-wheeled vehicle was rugged, reliable, well armored for its weight and, most importantly, cheap, making it a popular choice for many poorer third world countries that needed something well-protected to fight poorly armed insurgencies. Even though the first Commando units were built as early as in 1964, the marketing of the platform only ended in 2000, making it one of the most successful and least known armored fighting vehicles. The LAV-150 90 was fire support variant of the family with a Cockerill gun occupying an enlarged turret.

Vehicle Traits[ | ]

  • Marksman: This vehicle can fire advanced ammunition from its accurate weapon, allowing it to destroy enemy armor at long distances.
  • HESH Rounds: This vehicle can fire special Squash Head rounds. These are extremely effective against angled armor that is typical for Soviet tanks.
  • Amphibious: This vehicle is more resistant to taking on water, allowing it to traverse wider rivers or lakes.
