 ACV 2.0 is research for a new amphibious vehicle, a new fast landing craft for the ACV 1, or some undecided alternative.Aside from wartime amphibious assaults, the Marine Corps has other needs for amphibious vehicles.In relief operations during the 2010 Haiti earthquake, there was no combat, but ships could not dock in the country's damaged ports, and helicopters could not move the amount of cargo necessary, so AAVs were relied upon to transport supplies ashore.
