Очередная годнота от Battleorder. Очень интересно, как с точки зрения существующей организации - внимание привлекают по 4 "бронегрузовика" в каждой роте - так и с точки зрения американских экспериментов по преобразованию этих подразделений:
- Сохранить именно бронеразведывательные подразделения.
- Преобразовать их в легкие разведывательные подразделения на автотехнике.
- Совсем переделать их в пешие подразделения на мотолодках для решения задач в интересах флота.

С уважением, Dargot.

"внимание привлекают по 4 "бронегрузовика" в каждой роте"

Богато люди живут, ничего не скажешь. Алсо, из комментов:

"Talking to youngsters you didn’t get the full history of the LAR battalions.
They were first named LAV Bn (light armored vehicle battalion). Their purpose was to provide more vehicle lift for infantry and a big gun to support them by fire. Like the AAV battalions, they had no organic infantry.
They were reorganized and renamed LAI Bn (light armored infantry battalion) in the mid 1980s. They got organic infantry and Battalion assets (like FACs) to make them a maneuver element instead of just combat support.
The change to LAR happened in the early 1990s as force structure was being reduced at the end of the Cold War. They were going to give up their infantry and combine with Recon battalion, to be used as an insertion/extract option when needed. Recon put a stop to that idea, they kept their infantry and renamed them “scouts” (like the Army, but without its own MOS). They adapted into the role of armored reconnaissance, even though the largely foot mobile infantry divisions never had a need for highly mobile reconnaissance.
Today they continue to search for a purpose in the Marine Corps structure to justify their continued existence. Truth is they never were a good fit and the vehicles will probably go away as they morph into a new role.
