Brazil recieves 23 AAV(RAM) via CirculoTrubia

Brazil has received the first 2 AAV7 of the 23 acquired second hand to the Marines, as you can see, RAM version.

Interesting isn't it.

Marines (myself included) forget that despite its age, the AAV series is still the gold standard of amphibious assault vehicles.  No other vehicle  has the seakeeping/or swim capability necessary to equal its ability to get from ship to shore.

The fact that our allies are scooping them up for pennies on the dollar from Marine inventory is telling.

The AAV is an oldie, but its also a goodie.
