Also in a future when there are relatively few truly heavy foes wouldn't an M113 make a pretty scary foe?

It's got long range, thick enough armour to shrug off anything other than artillery or big well placed mines and bombs. Multiple machine guns and hatches give it great observation, stick an 81mm mortar in the back and it's a mobile artillery piece.

And most armies that have used it have been able to stick an astonishing array of firepower on one. An M113 with a vehicle sized flame thrower would be a dragon of myth and lore to most people in the world of tomorrow.
