This type has the up-armor, modern exhaust, and other accessories we used in Iraq. With some of the other add-on kits out there (from E.T. Models, Voyager, etc.) it will look exactly like the ones we used.

These are outstanding kits. I almost have a full platoon strengths fall variants. Will post pic later

Great overall Trumpeter quality of the LAV kit You can never go wrong with this model. Build one and add it to your military model collection.
