    An amphibious assault vehicle (AAV), likely a U.S. Marine Corps AAV7A1, is emerging from ocean surf onto a beach in what appears to be an amphibious landing exercise. The vehicle is painted in military olive drab/camouflage and is equipped with various external gear including ropes, antennas, and equipment stowage. The turquoise water and bright conditions suggest a tropical or subtropical location.
