The Tak-4 suspension is coil sprung and fully independent, and offers 16 inches of travel. The M-ATV's roof mounted turret is capable of mounting weapons such as an M240 machine gun, a Mk 19 grenade launcher, an M2 Browning machine gun, a MILAN anti-tank guided missile, or a BGM-71 TOW anti-tank guided missile launcher. The roof weapons can be operated either from the turret by person or remotely inside the cabin with a CROWS remote weapon system. The M-ATV also features modern vehicle safety systems such as traction control and anti-lock brakes in addition to modern creature comforts such as an HVAC system and power outlets for charging portable electronic devices. Unique among MRAP vehicles are the M-ATV's rear-hinged, aka, suicide doors.

In 2013 with the withdraw of HUMVEEs and the replacement of new MRAPs at a very cautious price the solution was the Schwarzkoph GMV or Ground Mobility Vehicle which combined both into one. It's no loadout pricetag starting only at 50-60 grand and with its full loadout through GM and the DoD its pricetag is about 200 grand at the most this model shown is the top of the line "Special Forces" loadout and the ability to hold 4-6 crewman and can be outfitted with a 7.62 NATO Minigun, a HK Mk. 14 automatic granade launcher and a 50 cal. Machine Gun. Other versions include EOD, "National Guard" and the "Flat". All featuring gun mounting abilities and Balistics glass and doors.

First vehicle of 2013 and made this Sunday and added some today as I was home sick due to Sinuses :/ I am getting a Lego Room within the next month with a new photogrophy set up so can't wait! By the way I got your package Hated and inspirations are added also based on the chasis of the Dirt Bike truck set ;)

My friend (and expert costumer) Sonya in her awesome K9 poodle skirt. I liked referring to it as a "51st century poodle skirt," but she preferred to think of it as belonging to a gal who'd met the Doctor in the 1950s, and who'd thought the Doctor and his dog were peachy keen.

This is a close up of one of the windows on our trucks that had been chipped by a rock.

My version of the Wolfhound is unarmed. The top turret is still operable but there is no weapons system mounted.

If you have seen the latest Die Hard Movie then you probably recognize the vehicle. This beast of a truck pulverized dozens of vehicles as well as part of a statue and a couple freeway bridge abutments. Dartz is known for building high end armored luxury vehicles as well as military personnel transporters. The Kombat MRAP was designed specially for the movie with only four built. There aren't any specifications for it but I guessed that it is based on the US Military M35, so I built a Hercules LDT-465 turbo diesel for it. Built for the 64th LUGNuts challenge "Mad Motor Skills"

I decided to build Andrew Somers' SUV. I've modified it and this is what i've come up with. A Special Operations vehicle used for fast raids and interventions. It's armed with a .50 cal Browning on a remote turret, and a M249 on the right side of the vehicle.

I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. I wanted something inspired by the US Humvee and Rheinmetal AGF . This resembles a Humvee a bit too much for my liking though.

Personally I think the smoke launches are too big, ideally I would have one binocular on each side but with the way I wanted to do it LDD wouldn't allow it.

Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) Vehicle M-ATV, at the 2012 MCAS Yuma Airshow.

This Navistar Defence Husky Protected Support Vehicle (KJ80AB) served with the British Army in Afghanistan between Operations ''Herrick 12'' (April 2010) and ''Herrick 16'' (October 2012) during this period the Vehicle was seriously damaged on three separate occasions by 'Improvised Explosive Device' (IED) incidents. Amazingly despite the 'Husky' receiving extensive damage, there were no casualties in any of the three incidents. The Husky was repaired after the first two incidents and put back into Service, but the third incident resulted in the Husky being withdrawn from Service. During ''Herrick 16'' the Husky was hit by a 'Command Wire' IED when returning to Control Base Wahid, after handing over a Check Point at Asmat to the local Afghanistan Police.

Husky KJ08AB still shows the extensive front end damage it suffered in 2012, in an early variant which had certain elements deliberately altered at the request of the British Army. The Husky is currently on loan from the Ministry of Defence to the Imperial War Museum at Duxford and was put on display in 2015.

The MXT-MV (Military Extreme Truck - Military Version) is an 'Infantry Mobility Vehicle' produced by Navistar Defense, a subsidiary of Navistar International, which is the owner of the International brand of vehicles, introduced in 2006 and developed in parallel with the civilian International MXT, the MXT-MV is extensively modified for Military Duty compared to its civilian counterpart, it is Transportable by the Lockheed C-130 Hercules Military Aircraft.

The MXT-MV was designed and developed by Navistar International's International Military and Government Division (now named Navistar Defense) and a subsidiary of Navistar International called Diamond Force Engineering (which was based in Dearborn Heights, Michigan) The development was led by Jim Bartel, Dick Rief, Wes Schultz, Ron Byrd, John Glass, Paul Klein and Britt Smart. The MXT-MV was exhibited at the 2005 edition of the annual Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Show, held in October at the Washington Convention Center. In August the following year, the MXT-MVA version was demonstrated to the United States Army at the Aberdeen Proving Ground. The MXT-MVA was Navistar's entry in the 2008 'Selection Competition' for the US Army's MRAP All Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV) Program, but the Army chose to procure the Oshkosh M-ATV instead.

In 2009 a modified variant of the MXT-MVA was ordered for service with the British Army this variant is known as the ''Husky'' in British Military Service. The Husky was ordered to replace the British Army's 'Snatch Land Rovers' in Afghanistan, which had proven to be inadequate in protecting their Personnel from 'Improvised Explosive Devices' (IED) A total of 262 Vehicles were initially ordered, and in 2010, a follow up order was placed for an additional 89 Vehicles, worth US$56 million.

Variants are available with three different cab configurations: Standard / Extended Cab / Crew Cab.

▪︎MXT-MVE: Standard, Unarmoured version.

▪︎MXT-MVA: The MXT-MVA (Military Extreme Truck - Military Version Armoured) was designed by Israeli Vehicle Manufacturer Plasan. It offers the choice of two Removable Armour Kits, dubbed A-Kit and B-Kit, with increasing levels of Protection against Bullets, Mines and Improvised Explosive Devices.

▪︎Husky TSV: The Husky is a variant of the MXT-MVA modified to satisfy the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence requirements for the Tactical Support Vehicle (TSV) Program for the British Army.

▪︎M-ATV: Navistar built its rejected M-ATV candidate sharing some Powertrain and Suspension Components with the MXT, but with a completely Unique Chassis. This Protection System was designed by Navistar rather than its normal MXT and MRAP Partner, Plasan.

▪︎Operators: The Navistar MXT-MVA is the UK's Husky Tactical Support Vehicle (Medium) Contracts for 351 Vehicles.

Two MRAP armored vehicles go through a training run on the Shuttle Landing Facility to support NASA's Commercial Crew Program at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The 45,000-pound mine-resistant ambush protected vehicle, or MRAPs, were originally designed for military applications. The MRAP offers a mobile bunker for astronauts and ground crews in the unlikely event they have to get away from the launch pad quickly in an emergency.

The Ridgback weapons include heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, or remote weapons systems that can be operated from inside via a joystick and camera. As with the Mastiff and Wolfhound models, the Ridgback has operable doors and the ballistic armour opens as well. I had to redesign the rear doors for the Mastiff and Ridgback from the original Cougar MRAP in order to accommodate the ballistic armour.

Slightly better detail in this shot. I love adding stores - fuel cans, shovels, axes, rucksacks etc. The tan vehicle was an experiment to see what I could do with the few tan bricks I have.
