The U.S. Marines are looking for a new armored vehicle.
Their requirements: The vehicle must be capable of scouting ahead of friendly forces and reporting on enemy positions, while at the same time packing enough firepower to hold their own on the battlefield.
The future Armored Reconnaissance Vehicle will replace the 1980s-era LAV-25 light armored vehicle, bringing new capabilities including the ability to control unmanned vehicles.
