Did we get a sneak peak at the upgraded AAV hull form?

Check out the video below and stop it at the 44 second mark.  Is that a sneak peek at an upgraded AAV hull?


Now compare it to the MPC hull form in the photo below...

And finally a comparison of it with a standard AAV...

I can't be sure but it looks different to me.  Again I'm just eyeballing it but I've looked through BAE's vehicle portfolio and I don't see anything similar. YMMV.

    It’s MPC, or a slight improvement on it (I noted a slightly different nose shape).

    Note the following:
    -- 4 shock mounting holes
    -- Lifting loop attachment point on the front driver’s side corner.
    -- Exterior armor studs
    -- Both the vid and MPC are wheeled and the AAV is tracked.

    If you look at the mystery hull you will see four square holes for the suspension for four wheels. Its a BAE MPC hull.
