ACV surprise via General Dynamics or BAE. Is it possible?

Are we about to witness a General Dynamics version of an October surprise?

What I'm getting at is this.  Are we about to see what I've always requested...an EFV without the complicated hydraulics and high waterspeed?
Its big boy procurement after all...but would the Marine Corps bite?

But if the surprise doesn't come from GD, could it come from BAE?  They have the specs on the AAV.  Instead of bidding for an upgraded model what if they were to offer new builds within a few hundred thousand dollars of the refurbed vehicles...would the Marine Corps bite?

This and the MPC will come down to price.  The ACV, MPC and AAV upgrade program is all in one office.  On reflection that indicates to me that not only are the competitors competing against each other but that the vehicle concepts are fighting to win the day too.
