I'm really curios about the red emblems on the door. I couldn't tell what it was, did anyone else pick up on it?
Its probably nothing buy who knows.
Last July, Defence Minister Peter MacKay announced the Canadian government would spend 5 billion Canadian dollars on the Close Combat Vehicle (CCV) program, the Force Mobility Enhancement program and tactical armored patrol vehicles.
He also said that the price included an estimated 1 billion Canadian dollars to upgrade the current fleet of light armored vehicles, known as LAV-3s.
Extensive use and the rough Afghanistan terrain have taken their toll on the LAV-3 fleet, he said.
The government has already selected General Dynamics Land Systems Canada, the builder of the LAV-3, as the prime contractor and systems integrator for the upgrade. The project will upgrade 550 vehicles with an option for an additional 80.
