In my T2k setting, the Stryker was one of the wheeled IFV that had been adopted by the US Army. The only difference in the RW Stryker and the T2k Stryker is that the one in the T2k universe is amphibious. It was developed in the 1990s as a light wheeled infantry fighting vehicle for use by light mechanized infantry scouting units because it's alot quieter than the M2 Bradley IFV / M3 Bradly CFV.
I've been doing alot of reading on weapon systems created since the fall of the Iron Curtian looking for the kinds of things that would exist in my T2k universe since i pushed the start of the Sino-Soviet War to 2000 instead of 1995.
Even with the war starting in 1995, there are alot of weapon systems that would have been adopted before the nuclear exchanges... Might not have been as many of the systems... But there would have been some of them there.
Paul's website is great showing those systems... i've been trying to find out more info and reference pictures so i can get things ready for my T2k game i want to run here.

Your wife can't remember your last name, your kids don't want to talk to you... You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me kid, nobody wants to be that guy. I do this because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it, I would let them do it. There's not, so I'm doing it.
