Everyone is thinking about giving the LLAV some sort of ammo resupply module, but just think about that on an LDS.

that's an idea, and it require a lot of skills to control a Dropship within a radius of the ally Vehicles while dodging incoming AV weapons. Perhaps some sort of module that allow the Dropship to release a Flux like grenade from above a replenishment ammo for anyone in the blast radius (kinda like dropping a bomb on top of things expect its a happy bomb).

I like the idea of when activating a transporter-type module on a dropship instead of having to require a lock, it simply searches for all vehicles within it's area of effect and locks to them.

not a bad idea, although some may not like it too much. I can imagine people saying it being OP because you don't actually lock on to the target like LAV's do or something along those lines. Perhaps another Turret on the Bottom of the Dropship which acts like that module. What's your thoughts?

My thoughts? Give the same ability to the LAVs then. The whole lock-on system really isn't very player friendly at all. Adding another turret would also solve the problem, but I am a bit confused. Would this turret be pilot controlled or passenger controlled?

So How are They going to get Resupplied? Vehicle Nanohives, Supply Depots, No ammo resupplyment option, or something entirely new? I'd imagine repair tools would be a great form of ammo replenishment for Vehicles (or rather a specific type of repair tool for ammo replenishment). This would increase incentives to have infantry support for Vehicles and more coordinated strategies as well. Supply depot seems to make the most sense as well for replenishment but It would be nice to see a new installation shaped like a gas station for replenishment for Vehicles. Gas station battles would hold a lot of purpose and make a new form of strategy between installation control of the battlefield. How would Gas Station add new purpose? Because Many Supply Depot are in some area's of the map that Vehicles cannot reach (such as complex or small sockets of Urban area's) and would allow players to set up ambushes for Vehicles looking to Resupply. What's your guy's thoughts? Give your Idea's Below, and how you feel about the 1.5 update for Vehicles.

Or a module that shoots a ammo beam to a tank/ other vehicle. Whatever the decision, logisitc vehicles need more logi tool to work with. What about the idea of a module that would act like the flux grenade but instead give a huge boost to ammo within the blast radius??

There`s also the issue where the lock on distance, and sustaining the lock need an overhaul. got any idea's on how the overhaul should be done?

Although than the Logistics pilot would then only get a assist for Logistic use. That's the best idea I can come up with.
