Good looking mods 👍

CaptGPF
Looks interesting. My only question is - did the US ever produce any of these AA LAVs?

Tom B.
Definetly one of the most interesting variants of the LAV... Following along here 👍

Carlos Cisneros
Tom & Capt, thanks for looking in and your kind words.

Capt, the US did indeed produce and field a handful of LAV-ADs. Roughly enough for one platoon in each LAR battalion. They were withdrawn from service in the early 2000's after having seen use in OIF1. I suspect that in todays renewed air threat environment, the decision to remove the system from service is seen as shortsighted.

CaptGPF
Not surprised about that…. Thanks to Drones, that decision seems even more shortsighted!

Matti Thomaes
Very impressive

Aladdin Model
Thank you Matti!

Now you just need to paint it 😉

Ben M
That had to be rough to print

Jennifer Franklin
That is amazing

Aladdin Model
@Ben M It was not that hard, 9 prints total

Aladdin Model
@Jennifer Frankliln thank you!

Aladdin Model
@Snake Plissken I'm not gonna paint this one haha

Ben M
You have a much higher success rate than I. It'd take me nine prints to get one part correctly oriented and supported.

Aladdin Model
@Ben M The model was pre-supported

Lorraine Lin
Awesome. Love it!

Aladdin Model
@Lorraine Lin Your hellcat looks amazing too! You should try 3D print too haha

Ben M
You're fortunate that it worked for you. Pre-supporting assumes the authors printer, choice of resin, exposure time, lift distance, dwell time, etc.

Aladdin Model
@Ben M We worked thourgh cone exposure test together so that took everything into account

Villiers de Vos
Inspiring work.

Aladdin Model
@Villiers de Vos Thank you!

Ben M
Well great work getting it printed. I do think you should paint it!

Aladdin Model
@Ben M Yea you're right!

Ben M
That's a really nice lung.
