LAV MODERNIZATION
At General Dynamics Land Systems, safety for the Soldier is our first priority. That's why we have introduced wide-ranging upgrades for the LAV III fleet. Take a closer look at the total package and see first-hand how General Dynamics Land Systems is extending the LAV III's mission to readiness. These enhancements include next-generation power, driveline and suspension systems for improved payload without sacrificing mobility.
