It's counterpart is the [[FAV]], which is operated by both the [[People's Liberation Army|PLA]] and the [[Middle Eastern Coalition|MEC]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Compared to the FAV, the DPV is disadvantaged as even though both have identical speed and acceleration stats, the Heavy Machine Gun turret for the DPV only has a 180-degree firing arc as opposed to the FAV's 360-degree firing arc. |

| − | In singleplayer, the DPV appears in the mission [[Hotel Alpha]] as the default vehicle the player can use to get around the level. |
||

| − | In multiplayer, it appears as one of two main light vehicles used by the USMC, the other being the [[HMMWV]]. Its counterpart is the [[MEC]]/[[PLA]] [[FAV]]. |

| − | The '''LSV''' makes a return appearance in ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]''. It appears on the map [[Oman]] when the A flag is under US control, and can also be found scattered about the map. |
||
| − | |||
| − | It is the fastest vehicle in the game. It is identical in performance to the Russian [[FAV]], and can be used to traverse Oman very quickly. The LSV can be destroyed by a single tank shot or rocket from a Stationary AT or an [[Engineer]]'s [[RPG-7]], so players driving the vehicle will want to avoid heavy armor fights as much as possible. The mounted M2 Browning on top does not allow the operator to crouch, leaving them fairly exposed to enemy fire. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Unlike in previous titles. the passenger seat player is allowed to use their weapons. This can potentially make the LSV a hit-and run anti-tank vehicle if an Engineer passenger uses their [[Tracer Dart Gun]] to lock on to a vehicle and then fires their RPG at it. This could also work well for a [[Anti-tank mine|mine]]-laying vehicle to pester enemy armor, as the passenger could drop mines about as the driver goes around the map. |

| − | The '''DPV''' returns in the ''[[Back to Karkand]]'' expansion pack, and is one of the four new vehicles. It is very fast and can carry up to three players: a driver, gunner and side seat passenger. Its armament is one M2 Browning on a 120 degree mount. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Players are unable to aim the mounted M2 Browning behind the DPV, leaving the vehicle's rear undefended. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The player is required to kill five enemies with the DPV for one part of the all kits Assignment [[Scarred Veteran]], in order to unlock the [[MK3A1|MK3A1 Jackhammer]]. |
