LVT-4 Water Buffalo with deployable Willy's MB Jeep
A combination of my recently posted Willy's MB Jeep and a brand new build, an LVT-4 Water Buffalo.
Funny thing is that the Water Buffalo was built first and then I decided I want to put a Jeep into it, so it was after this that I built the Jeep but then I decided to upload the Jeep first.
How does it work?
The LVT-4 can swim on any water surface and carry the Jeep to the front in amphibious assaults.
Controls:
AG1 - Activate LVT-4 controls
Trim-up - LVT-4 forward
Trim-down - LVT-4 reverse
Yaw - LVT-4 steering
Throttle - A small additional booster to help you out in climbing hills because the LVT-4's engine is too weak
AG2 - LVT-4 rear door
AG3 - Activate Jeep controls
VTOL-up - Jeep forward
VTOL-down - Jeep reverse
Yaw - Jeep steering
Pitch-Roll - Control of the Jeep's .50 cal machine gun
AG4 - Fold the Jeep's windshield
AG7 - Emergency cheat for the Jeep to stand up
CAM1 - Jeep driver view
CAM2 - Jeep gunner view
CAM3 - Jeep orbit view
A little demonstartion:
LVT-4 on water

Jeep rolling out from the LVT-4
Demonstration of the Jeep's features
The Driver
The Machine Gunner
And the foldable windshield
Before you ask, the .50 cals on the LVT-4 are just decoration and yes they are not presented on the gifs because I placed them after the gifs were made.
I hope you like this build. Have Fun!

Shameless plug but both my LVTs are mobile friendly, and they look near enough the same thing. @MEERKAT978
@metallicplanes The more features there are, the more controls needed ;)

@Jetliner101 The LVT-4 Water Buffalo was an amphibious tracked vehicle (LVT = Landing Vehicle Tracked) used mainly by the USMC (but the US Army used it too) during WWII. The LVT was able to carry troops, supllies and even smaller vehicle such as Jeeps. My build tries to represent the latter one. So yes, it a tank that swims and carries a Jeep which it can unload on land.
Thanks. I was just kidding. I love your stuff and I’m glad that you can add detail to them so they get the treatment they deserve. Thanks for the Follow! @BMilan
@metallicplanes What's wrong with them?
@aerodummy sorry to disappoint ya but I wasn't XD but I just checked your profile and you have a new follower. your stuff is awesome plus I love Dunkirk and the Kingsman movies too! :D
I cannot allow this! At least you were inspired by my build, right?..... Right?
The controls , man.....
Holy mother of God!
This thing looks absolutely amazing, and that MB's articulation (driver/gunner) is awesome. The Buffalo itself is a triumph too, I wish my phone could take it so I could figure out how to make an Amphi.
Outstanding work!
