hoggydog Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Ok I'm sure there is an easy to find answer to this one but I can not for the life of me find it. What vehicles did ACAV units use in Europe before the Bradley? Any help would be awesome 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Pretty sure just good old generic M113s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSe419E Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Armored Cavalry units used M-113s, with and without TOWs, and M60A1/3s. M901 ITVs replaced 113s with TOWs starting in the late ‘70s or early ‘80s. I have seen indications that some units recieved M1s before the Div ‘86 TOE was implimented but not more than a very few. A platoon consisted of: one platoon leader’s 113 two scout sections of one 113 and one 113 TOW/M901ITV one tank section of four M60A1/3s four a total of nine vehicles per platoon. (Look for FM 17-95s in the books section of the downloads. Also ST 17s.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
