    U.S. Marine Corps Amphibious Assault Vehicle crewmen standby to brief Lt. Gen. Robert F. Hedelund, II Marine Expeditionary Force commanding general, on the capabilities of AAVs and how they compare to the Marine Corps’ new Amphibious Combat Vehicle at Camp Lejeune, N.C., Aug. 28, 2018. The ACV has undergone testing for the past two years at various facilities including the U.S. Army Aberdeen Test Center in Aberdeen, Md. and the Amphibious Vehicle Test Branch on Camp Pendleton, Calif. The ACV has a landward maneuverability and mobility superior to the AAV and will eventually be replacing it as the Marine Corps’ primary amphibious vehicle.
