Vehicle NAME
History
Introduced in 1976, the AVV is a joint Australian–French 4×4 armoured car designed to give light units a fast, mobile, and easy-to-maintain protected carrier. Amphibious, compact, and .30-calibre proof, it proved ideal for both the outback’s brutal terrain and dense urban areas. With over 4,000 units produced, the AVV became a common workhorse not only for troop movement but also as a platform for a wide variety of light weapons — everything from machine guns to recoilless rifles and ATGMs. Its versatility and small logistical footprint made it appealing for reconnaissance units, rapid-response detachments, and gendarmerie forces.
Beyond its combat role, the AVV was frequently adapted into specialised forms: command vehicles, radio nodes, forward observer platforms and even ambulance variants. Its simple amphibious drive allowed infantry to ford rivers and coastal shallows without engineering support.

About the Project
The Pacific Front is a Alternate History Project about the time from 1940s through to the 70s in a time of turmoil, war and desperation. It focuses on the countries around the pacific ocean, like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Russia, China and a lot more. All the the project vehicles are fictional in nature and have their own story, lore and design. The Projects creations have a tendency for high fidelity, decoration and multi crew operation.
