Amphibious vehicle suggestions for the Royal Marines

The suggestions include BAE's former US Marine Corps amphibious design, a possible amphibious CV90, and Patria wheeled vehicles.

Question

Which tank or infantry fighting vehicle would best suit the Royal Marines if money were unlimited?

Short answer

BAE's former USMC amphibious design is the first choice, with a possible amphibious CV90 and Patria 6x6 or 8x8 also suggested.

Notes

BAE's former amphibious design for the US Marine Corps is the first suggestion under the unlimited-funding premise. A possible amphibious version of CV90 is another option, although its development is described tentatively. A second recommendation favors the Patria 6x6 or 8x8. These are preferences for equipping the Royal Marines, without a detailed comparison of protection or transport requirements.
