History

Class: Fire Support Vehicle
Developed: 1985-1986
Service: 1994+
Vehicles Built: cca 20 (incl. prototypes)
Operators: Philippines

The LAV-600 was the ultimate evolution of the Commando series and a heavily upgraded version of the LAV-300. Offered since 1985, it was designed specifically with fire support in mind since it was fitted with the same turret as the Stingray Light Tank, another product by Cadillac Gage. This turret carried a 105mm rifled cannon, making the LAV-600 a force to be reckoned with, since, by the time it was introduced, it could knock out all older Soviet MBTs, so often found in various pro-Soviet third world countries. In addition to this capability, the LAV-600 was accurate, cheap, light and air-transportable. Despite these qualities, Cadillac Gage managed to secure only one small contract for Philippines in 1993-1994. An attempt was made to offer this vehicle to the U.S. Army, but Cadillac Gage lost to the M1128 Stryker. The vehicle was removed from all offers in 2000.

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.
• Ready Rack: This vehicle features a Ready Rack, which consists of several easily accessible rounds. It can fire several rounds in rapid succession, after which the reload time increases. Ready Rack reloads automatically when not in combat.
• Amphibious: This vehicle is more resistant to taking on water, allowing it to traverse wider rivers or lakes.
