Dragoon Engineer/Maintenance Vehicle

Notes: This vehicle is based on the LFV-90 Dragoon light combat vehicle chassis. In the EMV vehicle, the turret is removed and replaced by a raised superstructure and a crane. The crane can lift 4.54 tons, enough to lift the engine or turret of a Dragoon or similar-sized vehicle. Four boom legs are lowered at the center and rear corners of the vehicle when the crane is in operations. The EMV is equipped with tools required for field maintenance, and the rear cargo doors are large to allow standard cargo pallets to be carried internally. The EMV normally carries a small (2kW) generator at the right rear corner of the roof. A weakness of the Dragoon EMV is that it is normally unarmed. The Dragoon EMV retains the firing ports of the LFV-90 (two on each side, and one in the rear).

LAV-150S Commando Recovery Vehicle

Notes: This vehicle is produced by Cadillac Gage in the United States for a large number of nations in South America, Africa, and Central America, as well as Singapore, Thailand, and Turkey. It is a standard LAV-150 chassis with the turret replaced by a raised superstructure. Atop this superstructure is an A-frame crane that can lift 4.54 tons. When the crane is used, the vehicle is braced by two jack stands. The LAV-150S is equipped with a winch that has a capacity of 11.25 tons with 61 meters of cable. Special equipment carried includes an air compressor, basic and wheeled vehicle tools, a fuel transfer pump, two jacks that can lift up to 15 tons, a workbench, and slave cables.

The LAV-150S's layout is otherwise like the standard LAV-150, with a door in each side that has a firing port, another firing port forward of the door in each side, and a two-part roof hatch on the right rear deck. The commander has his own hatch, with a weapon mount.

LAV-300 Commando Recovery Vehicle

Notes: Cousin to the LAV-150S, the LAV-300 CRV is the recovery version of the LAV-300 armored personnel carrier. Countries that use the LAV-300 APC use it. Its turret has been replaced by a raised superstructure, and an A-frame crane is provided on top of the vehicle. The crane has a capacity of 4.54 tons, and the winch is the same one used on the LAV-150S CRV. The LAV-300 CRV carries the same recovery and repair equipment as the LAV-150S CRV, but as it is larger, it can carry more spares and extra tools, and towing capacity is increased. There is a door in each side of the vehicle, two firing ports on each side, and a roof hatch. The commander has his own hatch with a weapon mount.
