The United States has the most powerful armed forces in the world. Three army corps stand ready to defend Western Europe from the red horde poised across the Iron Curtain. Armoured troops’ powerful M60 Patton tanks or state of the art M1 or IPM1 Abrams tanks, mechanized infantry mounted in reliable M113 personnel carriers, and light infantry of the 82nd Airborne all stand ready to stop the red tide. |

The AAVP7 with their boat shaped hulls take their cargo ashore, capable of speeds in the water of 8 miles per hour propelled by a pair water jets in the rear of the craft. The AAVP7 was upgraded to the AAVP7A1 to mount a turret armed with an M2 .50 cal heavy machine gun, and a 40mm Mk19 grenade launcher. It has a crew of four and can carry up to 25 combat equipped Marines, allowing two vehicles to carry one Marine Rifle Platoon. |
