That's because the real world Patria AMV doesn't have any commander seat.

EDIT: Well, at least not that version of it. Other versions of it, like the none armed one have space for 3 crew members: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c1/Croatian_Patria_AMV_Karlovac_2009.jpg

After some research, it doesn't seem like there's a commander hatch on any of the other comfirmed variants of the AMV http://www.abload.de/img/arma3_screeenshot_egchx2t7.jpg

No wait. There's a total of 3 hatches on the current AMV variant (driver and 2 on the turret). I guess there SHOULD be a commander there :/

EDIT: you can also see on this picture of another (older I guess) 40mm turret. There's 2 crew members on the turret: http://www.military-today.com/apc/patria_amv_l4.jpg

The AMV shows a welded hole where the commanders periscope was initially found as you can see in this early development pic of the AMV we have in the beta right now.

Theory:

In the current state of the BETA they might only be implementing the spots that do no use interior models for the IFVs.

Mass closing ancient tickets with no activity for > 12 months; assume fixed or too trivial.

If this issue is still relevant in current dev build, please re-post.
