Content Suggestion Faction Vehicle Addition

Content Suggestions will be reviewed by Content Team weekly, please allow time as not everything can be reviewed at once.
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
- This suggestion would give all factions (F, UNGOC, CI) their variety of unturreted armoured vehicles. CI = BTR90 HQ | UNGOC = LAV HQ | F = LAV HQ

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
- To my knowledge, no.

Possible Positives of the suggestion:
- Allow factions to use armoured vehicles during VIP escort.
- Faction negotiations can be done without the use of dangerous threat like LAVs/BTRs but still ensure reliably safety.
- Troop transport without the hefty cost of losing a turreted LAV/BTR.
- Diplomatic or Civilian use that isn't seen as tank.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- Have heard that these vehicles can be used for respawns but not entirely sure if this is true or not. This can be seen as either a positive or negative but I'm putting it as a negative as it could cause issues or be considered to overpowered.
- More vehicles = lag

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
- With there being almost constant warfare on surface between factions or factions and the civilians then there is a need for some stronger ground support. If you've spent a considerable amount of time on surface then you know how invaluable an LAV can be to the transport of troops or security of an area but to lose LAV or BTR is quite costly and other vehicles are just to vulnerable to attack. So this suggestion would lift the constraint individuals feel to deploy armoured for response to civilian threats or diplomatic affairs. If negative of this vehicles provide a moveable spawn then it could be worked around in some development (This coming from someone with no knowledge development works) or maybe implemented but only provides a one time spawn for all who have entered the vehicle. To note at the end, I've seen UNGOC use this as of recent which reminded me these vehicles are still a thing.

BUT
from my time as GM i'm fairly sure i was told to never use these vehicles because the faction spawn system ported from MRP will allow anybody from that faction to spawn at the vehicle, including D-Class/CSes/GOC recruits
^ this was also an issue we had using FOB radios in events in the past so they'd need to patch the addon for SCPRP or smth

That is good to know but I’m sure they could easily fix this issue or have an addiction vehicle that is exactly the same that does allow the spawns.

- Would make it so we can go out with a armoured vehicle and it not have a 50 mm cannon on the front of it.
