The Tamiya F.A.V is a replica of the US military Fast Attack Vehicle. As you can see below, the model is quite like the original. The Fast Attack Vehicle was developed during the 1980s as part of the United States\\' Army\\'s High Technology Light Division. The HTLD was given carte blanche to develop doctrine, decide force structure, and design equipment by then Army Chief of Staff Edward C. Meyer. One of the pieces of equipment created by HTLD was the Fast Attack Vehicle. Chenoweth delivered 120 FAVs to the Army in 1981. The FAV was intended to provide a highly mobile component to the mostly foot infantry unit. As the pictures reveal, the FAV\\'s are based on Volkswagen Beetles. (note the Beetle gearbox)
