To meet the direct fire support requirements within the medium and high levels of conflict, the Canadian Land Forces are considering a light armoured vehicle (LAV) as a replacement for its Leopard C1 main battle tank (MBT). This report presents the analysis results of the JANUS wargaming that was conducted in order to determine the effectiveness of the LAV with a 105-millimetre gun in comparison with a modern MBT in warfighting tasks. The results are based on several attack & defence scenarios and include measures of mission success, lethality, and survivability.
