message: Does anyone know if the Amphibious Assault Vehicle (AAV), which this vehicle is intended to replace, has ever actually been used in combat?  This sounds like yet another very expensive weapons system which would have been great to have during World War II, but seems of dubious value today.Lahaun (talk) 23:21, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

One industry source said the Pentagon had already spent US$3.3 billion developing the EFV amphibious vehicle and could see 200 of the vehicles built for US$3.6 billion more – less than the US$8.2 billion required to build the 573 vehicles currently included in the budget.
I suppose we might as well wait one day for the announcement. Hcobb (talk) 17:27, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

'We currently have 27 active battalions and another nine [in] reserves. So you can see that there is already risk in terms of their mobility. Within that lift for 20 battalions, one third [eight] are by air and the remaining 12 battalions are by ground. Eight of those will be by the replacement for the EFV – the next AV [Amphibious Vehicle] and then we have the MPC [Marine Personnel Carrier], which will be an eight-wheeled vehicle that will carry about nine troops and three crew. That would round out our ground combat mobility.'

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
