A 25 mm GAU-12/U Gatling gun and Stinger missiles in one turret: the LAV-AD protected Marine units against low-flying aircraft, helicopters and drones, and it could fire at light armour too. The Blazer turret, similar to the Avenger system, carries a forward-looking infrared sight and a laser rangefinder. Two operators search the sky through their own windows without leaving the vehicle, which keeps the abilities of the LAV-25 it is based on.
