Default The competing vehicles
I've snatched a number of V100 and V150 shots from the interwebs, FB and Steel Soldiers. No commentary on the trials, but I've named each image with the year purported to be its trial year. Give Cadillac Gage credit for persistance from 1966 to 1976.

Since the new TAPV is a descendant of the commando, then I would say their persistence paid off. It only took 50 years, give or take.

Someone should run CFRs 20405 and 20329 thru the EDR to see what comes up.
