A picture what exactly? This is a program in the concept phase. There's nothing concrete enough for an image yet. -Fnlayson (talk) 00:04, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Mobility[edit]

The whole paragraph about mobility, that starts with "The ACV 1.1 is to carry 10–13 Marines", makes no sense .

" 'in-line' drive technology " -- distribution of power onto wheels, based on their friction, is not anything new, for a decade . While ACV has nearly the same contact surface as LAV III, it weights ~2 times more . Every aspect of its mobility on extremely-soft surfaces has to be much worse than of any tracked analog .

"Better mobility" from some source in military, probably means tactically cheaper and faster relocations in conditions of the intended application . Saying that the vehicle has better (just) "mobility" than the tracked ones, is just wrong .
