It certainly does seem like a 105mm gun is going to be the best option, provided it can be wedded to the chassis. I don't know enough about low-pressure ammunition and guns to know if our new light tank is going to require a low-pressure 105mm (I suspect so, but I'm no expert) and whether HEAT ammunition can be exchanged between various types of 105mm tank guns. I'd be curious to know what the 105mm gun and turret will do to the LAV's profile and weight.

What about a name for the new LAV, or at least a modifier? (LAV-75B?)
