Combat Mission Units: LAVs in CMSF

- A look at the USMC and Canadian LAVs in Combat Mission Shock Force 2- the LAV-25 and the LAV III.
In Battlefront's own words:
"Combat Mission Shock Force 2 finally updates the ground breaking Shock Force 1 game setting to the current Game Engine 4 environment. Due to massive changes over the last 10 years of Combat Mission development the updating and upgrading of the original content to current standards was no small task. Most of the 3D models had to be rebuilt, reskinned, and reintegrated into brand new TO&E coding. All original scenarios and campaign games had to be checked out, tweaked, and generally improved so they retained the balance and excitement of the originals. Fans of the original game will find that this is much, much more than a new coat of paint."
"Take command of US Stryker Brigade Combat Teams (SBCT) and Heavy Brigade Combat Teams (HBCT) to fight against Syrian Army Infantry, Mechanized and Armored units in an arid setting. Experience the full range of modern threats to conventional military forces, including irregular combat forces, terrorists, spies, suicide bombers, IED's and other deadly tools employed in the asymmetric warfare of the modern day. Play the Task Force Thunder campaign, more than a dozen carefully crafted battles, or unlimited Quick Battles."
I was talking with a recruiter for the CAF once and he told me two stories of his time in an LAV III and how he survived twp RPG's and a rollover, so they're pretty durable if he wasn't just lucky lol
Also we don't call it the SRAAWM in Canada, we just call it the Carl G. SRAAWM might be its official name on documents and stuff, but in practical use I have never actually heard it called anything other than some minor variant of Carl Gustav.
Yeah, I can't imagine anyone who actually might have to use one calling it a SRAAWM.
Crusty old wo on weapon courses do lol
I have, but that was because it was during the old cloth model style EX's in the context of answering where the SRAAWM's were going to be sited, and if special tank hunting groupings were going to be used, and that sort of thing. It was never a name that caught on much outside staff types and their reports.
Love your videos man! I was always so bad at Combat Mission as a kid because I just loved watching the different vehicle models and never bothered learning to play, but now your videos have taught me how to play properly and the game is much more enjoyable!
Cheers man! Glad it's all helping.
The USMC LAV's probably carry empty ammunition liners on the outside of the turrets for crew stowage. No one carries live ammunition externally (apart from the spare smoke grenades which being phosphorous based aren't popular internally). :) Our ASLAVs have provided great service, but we are now moving on to the Boxer with a Puma type turret as part of LAND 400.
Empty ammo cans as stowage boxes makes total sense- that's probably it!
Please keep up these great combat mission videos man. You're the best on youtube. Not a lot of CM content out there. Your videos are BY FAR the best and most in-depth. LOVE the multiplayer series as well.
The door in the ramp of the Canadian LAV3 is the Combat Door. I can't say I've used it on the LAV but I sure used it on the old M-113. Things like dismounting to clear hides (and so on) type tasks when you don't want or need the ramp lowered.
Another informative video for Combat Mission, always enjoyable. Keep up the good work.
Cheers man! Glad you enjoyed it.
Is that what you want to do Hapless? Do you want to put together an LAV only, mobile and almost self-sufficient package? 8 wheeled handicap 2, 25mm boogaloo confirmed?!
It might be a lot closer to reality with a title like that! ;)
As regards the LAV-25's AP ammo, it might be M919, which can do around 100mm of penetration against RHA.
Another great video indeed! Love this type of information, especially the last part, how to use them in battle. Would also like to see one for the Dutch open-top Mercedes, which I struggled a bit with, especially in the 'Flank guard' scenario. Or even more content of dutch vehicles such as the YPR/CV90 etc.;)
Cheers man! All of the light jeep-like vehicles (G-Wagens, Humvees, Land Rovers etc) are really similar so if I do a video on them, I'll probably deal with them all at once. YPRs and CV90s are definitely in the queue though!
Hello, it just occurred to me, a CM basics video about how to deploy and best use the different types of smoke in this game would be cool.
That's a good shout. Might remind to actually use smoke every now and again!
My experiance with the USMC LAV AT is that it was exeedingly frustrating to get working, replaying the Marine campaign and the amount of los issues i had getting the vehicle to see targets was infuriating i had more luck just using the humvee mounted TOWs most of the time.
I haven't actually taken the LAV-ATs out to a fight yet, so I can't really comment. I can see the TOW humvee having better spotting though- the gunner has a much wider field of view.
My tip for what it is worth, you're much better off to let the vehicle look in the right direction. You may see the enemy, but the algorithm of the AI doesn't. Plotting targets, I do for area fire only and never looked back. I saw a Sagger on the roof and the Leopard II from a mile away took it out. Every time I try to do it manually it doesn't work. It accounts for 95 % of the 'game sucks' stories.
Your history introduction is somehow fascinating, and that's from an easily bored man. *applause*
Very interesting! I don't even play CMSF, but I find myself watching your videos anyway haha
What is your background in, if you don't mind my asking?
Wonderful video as always! Are we going to see a AAR involving LAVs soon? It's such a shame that the 40mm CV90 is not in the game, it would be quite entertaining to listen to you analyze that beast.
I don't actually have any CMSF AARs in the pipe right now (well, except the O5L stuff but I can't do anything with that until it's finished and I haven't played any of the battles with the LAVs), so not in the near future unfortunately.
35mm CV90 is in game though- it's only 5mm short of the 40!
@@usuallyhapless9481 "only 5mm"?!?? How dare you sir?! XD 40mm lolpen is love and life, even MBTs tremble in fear!
@@sproge2142 A 40mm grenade that scares MBTs?
@@michaelwestmoreland2530 not a grenade, 40mm gun with APFSDS with almost 200mm of penetration.

Well. Holy shit.
Video request seconded.
LAV VI is now in service LAV III is retired
Awesome video, I follow all your posts... appreciate you taking the time! One question with the Marines Command variant, what is the value add of this vehicle?
where do these lav in 29 palms are supposed to be deployed?
hell?
Good video. Don't know about you but I've tried using the tow carriers and they always turn out to be pretty disappointing all the time. They really have a hard time spotting armour. I've had more luck using Humvees with tows. Smaller targets and can actually spot armour
Thanks! Apparently there have been some issues with the armoured TOW carriers' spotting ability, so you're not alone.
@@usuallyhapless9481 is it the same thing with the Tua? Cause that has thermals unlike the lav at(if I remember correctly) and even those have a pretty hard time. The humvee with the launcher outperforms both pretty easily
I think the TUA is almost certainly bugged at the moment. The humvee's advantage is probably that it's open topped. So the the gunner has a huge field of view to spot targets with, then he can quickly get the TOW optics on target to identify and engage. The LAV-AT and TUA gunners have a much narrower field of view because they have to look through periscopes or magnified optics, so they're much slower at picking up spots to begin with.
At 3:22, isn't that a Ranger (FLIR) radar fitted on those LAV ?
I am actually not sure. The lollipop on the front looks like some kind of IED jammer and its a little difficult to pick any other extra bits out.
At 10:30 what's kind of panning feature is that and what program are you using
Great video, could you please do one on unconventional forces?

I forgot about that one. How about an AAR? I haven't been able to find a good one on uncons. I'm not good enough to beat my friends on equal footing so I enjoy playing as a dirty bastard as uncons, and it's expected that I lose
@@lukemartin9257 I would have to fight an interesting game as the uncons first, unfortunately. They are extremely tough to play as.
@@lukemartin9257 If you are looking for a good uncon AAR/DAR: www.thefewgoodmen.com/thefgmforum/threads/operation-lion-shield-dar.31182/
Although it is written it gives a good insight in the strengths and vulnerabilities of the uncons.
Piranha 2 was a great sequel
Can the -A2 still swim?
Yes. Like a duck.
@@usuallyhapless9481 Cool. I think I was getting confused with some vehicle they uparmored so much for Afghanistan it couldn't swim anymore...
whyme943 striker maybe
@@whyme943 I think it's BMP-1 upgraded to the BMP-1D varient.
this game looks so sheit, but still.. is so good.
That says a lot
Also I don't know of any LAV knocked out by RPGs in Afghanistan. The models you are using in this game do not have the up armour. A recoilless rifle will take them out and have. Most units do not dismount the vehicle commander.
Just played the Koninklijke Landmacht on Iron against Syrian special forces and veteran during a night action. Glad I was not doing it for real. Using standard tactics and using the objective as my killing ground the AI is still as useless as ever. Two Syrians survived it with their morale on panic the Koninklijke Landmacht no losses. I expect the developers of Combat Mission to improve their battle plans for the AI. Don't learn how to master the editor because it takes the fun out of the game as it teaches you how the AI works. I would respect special forces of any country in this game the AI doesn't even make conscript.
Pretty sure that any AI smart enough to play Combat Mission effectively would call itself Skynet and kick off the Machine Wars, so probably best Battlefront haven't developed that yet...
@@usuallyhapless9481 Name of the game is find a human player. There are two of us my brother and me in Hot Seat Mode. But you can't play the Campaigns that way. Internet with the security issues is something I am apprehensive about. At least Combat Mission gives us something to do in Lock Down and retirement.
Bloody online game ad and in video ad they all a money drain but that the price u pay
