the most stupid idea.

Amphibious IFVs?

>>64641493
Real countries achieve overwhelming supremacy in fires and air support, and then build pontoon bridges.

A gif that might as well be a jpg/png?

Everyone more or less abandoned the idea except russia (and china I guess) because it's aimply not usable in most real world situations

>overwhelming supremacy in fires and air support
kind of a necessity in massed river crossings as the current war has shown
I wonder if a dispersed force could do it by sneaking through but if your dispersed force has the numbers to actually mean anything it's still gonna be spotted from a mile away, and even if it isn't it's liable to get destroyed piecemeal before it can regroup

Even if being used to flank the enemy rear, it's really too damn slow to capitalize on catching them off guard. Armor being really fucking thin so it doesn't sink is also another issue. Overall, a neat concept but too vulnerable.

>>64644604
it's going to suck actual balls being sent over in one of those death traps to Taiwan.

>>64641493
When has an amphibious or airdroppable combat vehicle ever not been a disaster? Surely there's at least one example.
>>
>>64641493
I've had way stupider ideas than that

From limited experience 323s aren't horrible and have pretty decent amphibious abilities.

>It can't have been a disaster since it's never been used for anything
I guess maybe that counts...

>>64644747
Ethiopia and Iran used them and they were pretty positive about them:
>Troops liked them
>Very basic but 'adequate' protection
>Noticeably spacious and comfortable compared to Soviet designs
>Good buoyancy, very fast amphibious transition, basically just engaging a gear
>Waterjets are fast compared to track drive
>Lots of ammo, tended to get used as fire support like it was a IFV, fast turret speed
>>
>>64641493
No. Your momma letting your uncle creampie her and then not getting an abortion was the most stupid idea.

>>64644734
