Tamiya #35159 - U.S. aquatic AAVP7A1 w/UGWS

Amphibious operations (the landing of personnel, equipment and materials from vessels onto a hostile shore) are considered by military tacticians to be probably the most complex and hard of all army operations. The U.S. Marine Corps may be the military company in America charged with this responsibility. Formerly known as the LVTP7A1, the FMC produced AAVP7A1 now gets the role of an Assault Amphibious car, Personnel, to counter any hostile threat during landing operations. This versatile car can navigate into the ocean waves 3 meters high while carrying 25 completely equipped Marines and may also withstand total immersion without sinking. It's a really big tracked car, being very nearly the same length once the U.S. M1A1 Abrams main battle tank. The newest variation is equipped with a newly designed turret referred to as "Upgunned Weapons station", which will be manufactured by the Cadillac Gage firm, in the usa. The turret is a single man armament station mounting the MK 19 Model-3 40mm (grenade) machine weapon and a coaxially installed M2 heavy barrel .50 caliber machine gun. The primary mode of procedure for the armament section is manual. However, in azimuth the system includes a Power Assist Travers (PAT) mechanism. The PAT allows the gunner to quick slew under energy at the very least price of 45 deg./sec., and then by hand fine lay their weapons in the target. This very formidable gun place replaces the prevailing M85 .50 cal. product at this time incorporated regarding Marine Corps fleet of AAVP7A1.
