Ok

this has been talked about for some time, I found this doc which talk about tank production is was produced in 1993, it also list the current (1993) tank levels for M1 Abrams and the M60, it also names factories that make the tank parts and breaks tank production down by state

hope it help

I don't believe a TO&E would be created specifically for CG vehicles. The CG vehicles probably owuld be used as replacements for vehicles in an existing TO&E.

I should have said that I saw no TOE's that included them...

Where would the Army store vehicles like the LAV's for replacement? Is there a list of sites or something?

The Department of Energy uses a few different models of CG vehicles. V-150 and Ranger Peacekeeper for protection duties.

The US Air Force Security units that protect the nuclear silo's also use (used) the V-150 and Ranger Peacekeeper for security details.

I believe there are (where) a number of the Ranger Peacekeepers in the UK at the USAF bases.

Here something I found from the Ranger wikipedia entry

"Rangers/Peacekeepers were produced in the early 1980s on a shortened Dodge 200 or Dodge Ram pickup truck chassis, the same chassis as the CUCV"

wonder how many CUVC the guard had and how were in storage, could these be rebuilt as rangers, I mean you alreay have the chassis which alot of the work done, I could totally see the USAF requesting that more be rebulit used the CUCV in storage, the army might want too for MP and Guard after the strip them of there vehciles

The vehicle guides tend not to list anything lighter than an LAV-75 by name. Therefore, almost anything lighter could be worked into the TO&E with a little imagination. CG vehicles were distributed as replacements for other AFV in CONUS and overseas. Once they arrived in-theater, the CG replacement vehicles would be subject to the same vagaries of chance as any other vehicle. In short, one could justify the presence of a single light AFV almost anywhere.

With the power plant and SWAT ideas then this shouldn't be a problem to justify in game.

Thanks for the help all.
