Here is a fictional look into the future of law enforcement vehicles. In the future the United States will be plauged with terrorist activity equivilent to modern day Israel. All State-wide law enforcement agencies will require specialized Counter Terrorism Units. The Kentucky State Police will need a tough, versatile, armored vehicle for urban environments, capable of delivering a wide variety of firepower. The CAV shown here features: Siren/PA, Blue Lights, Complex Com Package, Spot Light, Hell Fire Rockets, 50 cal gun, 7.62 Cal Gun, Dual multi Purpose Grenades launcher.

I took an AMT AT-ST, and wanted to do a law enforcement theme. I gave it an anime-inspired agressive stance. I used 'for sale' sign styrene to add onto the personnel compartment. I used Apoxie scult to make leg joints, the fire extinquisher and fill seams. I made the rocket launcher out of a bic pen, the siren/pa speaker from a pen tip. The left side 7.62mm gun is the gun turret from the AMT AT-AT Kit. Tidbits left over from a Gundam were used or the grenade launchers and hydraulic seams. Some sprue was used for hydraulics and the .50 cal gun. Wire made hydraulic hoses. I reversed the AT-ST feet just to take it further from original.
