After playing RWR for a while I found that there was a lack of water vehicles they are only 2 (rubber boat, patrol ship). because the jeep is like the rubber boat and patrol ship is like the tank, but they is not Humvee equivalent, so a thought of something that would be good and it came to me a hover craft; it would be a great water vehicle, it would be fast but not as fast as rubber boat and armored but not as much as the patrol ship. It would have similar stats to the Humvee, they would be around speed: 22(on water), health points: 140, it would wield the same MG as the Humvee (500 rpm). Because Hover crafts are amphibious this would have to be implemented into the hovercraft, they're 2 options it moving slower on land, around the speed: 7-12, or that it could only move on certain surfaces like sand. (Or even both)

After more research I found a few real military hovercrafts that would be similar; The SR.N5 used in viatnam by the US military and Griffon 2000TD hovercraft (still in use today).

This would be very interesting :) . Maybe if one could be spawned in then it would carry a troops and a humvee or two instead of an actual manned vehicle. Kinda as a ferry for transport and flanking enemies.

Oh yes, when I was doing some research I found US military hovercraft which transported Humvee's or tanks. This would be a great in the game, like you said transporting vehicles just like a ferry.

I feel that it would have to be restricted on use though. Wouldn't want people driving that around through towns if it were too fit there.

What we need is a swamp map, with one or two new "naval vehicles"

basically some sort of map with lots of shallow water that rubber boats and APC's can cross but tanks, humvees, and jeeps can't intertwined with paths for patrol boats and several shanty town like villages. A map like this would be great as it would have lots of rocks and trees for cover but would be dangerous as one must be careful with their vehicles.

Island/Swamp map would be soooooo cool.
Who ever can make maps, pls do it.

I agree with this. I think we should make a petition for Jackmayol :) Informing him of the community wanting this.

an amphibious vehicle would be fine, but in theory the amphibious apc already , so an update of serious apc higher priority than a new vehicle
but if you do both, the following would be a map with water , lots of water , as an archipelago or a swamp
