Any thoughts given to the following?
M-577 Command Vehicle
M-106 4.2" (107mm) Mortar Carrier
M-125 81mm Mortar Carrier
I believe all are derivatives from the M-113 Chassis.

Ford MUTT
already in the game from what i have driven... this is the m151 and m151a1 during the Vietnam era.
are all those vehicles from the Vietnam era???
and yes, those vehicles in the original post are all M113 derivants. the m577 was used for TOC and ambulance/field aid stations. the m106 was a 4-deuce mortar carrier and the m125 (not m105) was a 81mm mortar carrier. there was also the m163 vulcan that was used for convoy escort and the m132 with a flamethrower (carried 200 gallons of napalm). there is also the mentioned ACAV that was added/modified for the Armored Cavalry regiments (divisional or independant).
Normal crew for the ACAV was a driver, commander (who manned the .50 cal), two M-60 gunners and two loaders, one of whom would also be armed with an M-79 40mm grenade launcher. Typical ammo loads consisted of 3,500 rounds of M2 .50 caliber, 8,500 rounds of 7.62mm m-60, 5,000 rounds of 5.56mm M-16 and 150 40mm M-79 40mm grenades.

M577 Command Vehicle
http://www.gruntonline.com/Order%20of%2 ... y_oob1.htm
The vehicle is included within the Vietnam Divisional Armored Cavalry Squadron Order of Battle.
M-113 ACAV
I would love to see this vehicle make it to OFP, but I fear the game engine would not allow for AI to operate the side mounted M-60s...
M106 (4.2") SP Mortar Carrier
http://www.gruntonline.com/Order%20of%2 ... y_oob1.htm
This is just a quick look, but M-106s were apart of the Armor Battalion, Armored Cavalry Regiment, Infantry Battalion and Mechanized Infantry Battalion Order of Battle. There were four of them supporting the plethora of M-48s.
M-125 (81mm) SP Mortar Carrier
http://www.gruntonline.com/Order%20of%2 ... y_oob1.htm
This site worked out well for a source document. The M-125 also is apart of the Divisional Armored Cavalry Squadron and Mechanized Infantry Battalion Order of Battle.
Hope this helps!
