Welcome to the Amphibious Marine shop. Here we specialize in amphibious vehicles used by Marine forces in RL and the NS world. Please note that all vehicles here will need to be placed on a naval ships to get to a general location. These are the components needed to attack a beachhead. All I ask of you is that use please do you own math. If you do not see something here that has to with Amphibious Marine Vehicles then please TG me or post on the forum (TG preferred). When you see "Other Variants available" that means that there are other RL Variants and you may request to buy those. Thank you for stopping by and we hope to see you again.

1.AH-1W Super Cobra (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/ah-1w-980113-N-4319P-007.jpg) The Marines depend on attack helicopters to provide close-in fire support coordination in serial and ground escort operations. Such support is required during amphibious ship-to-shore movements and subsequent shore operations within the objective area. The AH-1 is designed for the following tasks:
* Armed escort for helicopters carrying personnel and cargo
* Landing zone fire suppression support
* Visual armed reconnaissance
* Target marking and direction for high-performance attack aircraft
* Convoy escort and fire suppression for ground units
* Operations from air capable ships
* Point target attack of threatening armor
* Self-defense and protection of helicopters carrying personnel and cargo from threatening air-to-air helicopters

2.Light Armored Vehicle-25 (LAV-25) (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/lav-25-dvic373.jpg) The LAV-25 is an all-terrain, all-weather vehicle with night capabilities. It provides strategic mobility to reach and engage the threat, tactical mobility for effective use of fire power, fire power to defeat soft and armored targets, and battlefield survivability to carry out combat missions. It is air transportable via C-130, C-141, C-5 and CH-53 E. When combat loaded there are 210 ready rounds and 420 stowed rounds of 25 mm ammunition as well as 400 ready rounds and 1200 stowed rounds of 7.62mm. There are 8 ready rounds and 8 stowed rounds of smoke grenades. A supplementary M240E1 7.62mm machine gun can be pintle-mounted at the commander's station in the turret.

3.Advanced Amphibious Assault Vehicle (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/aaav-Img0016.jpg) The Marine Corps is developing the AAAV to replace the AAV as its primary combat vehicle for transporting troops on land and from ship to shore. The AAAV must satisfy many operational requirements, which will provide increased capabilities compared to the AAV and improve the ship-to-shore movement, thus allowing the Marine Corps and the Navy to more effectively implement OMFTS. Table 3.1 compares selected AAAV requirements with the AAV's current capabilities.

6.Mark V Special Operations Craft (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/mk5.jpg) The Mark V is used to carry Special Operations Forces (SOF), primarily SEAL combat swimmers, into and out of operations where the threat to these forces is considered to be low to medium. They also support limited coastal patrol and interruption of enemy activities. The MARK V Special Operations Craft (SOC) is the newest, versatile, high performance combatant craft introduced into the Naval Special Warfare (NSW) Special Boat Squadron (SBR) inventory to improve maritime special operations capabilities.

7.Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/lcac12.jpg) The Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) Transport weapons systems, equipment, cargo and personnel of the assault elements of the Marine Air/Ground Task Force both from ship to shore and across the beach. The landing craft air cushion (LCAC) is a high-speed, over-the-beach fully amphibious landing craft capable of carrying a 60-75 ton payload. Capable of operating from existing and planned well deck ships, it is used to transport weapons systems, equipment, cargo and personnel from ship to shore and across the beach. The advantages of air-cushion landing craft are numerous. They can carry heavy payloads, such as an M-1 tank, at high speeds. Their payload and speed mean more forces reach the shore in a shorter time, with shorter intervals between trips.
