The up armord hummve is a good vehicle, but I think the M1117 Guardian now use by the U.S MP's is a great vehicle for convoy escorts and other dutys with an elevated risk. It has more fire power than an up armord hummve (A turret mounted .50 and Mk 19 like the marine AAV) and at 17 tons has better protection for the crew.
What other vehicles in iraq or afganistan do you think are more suitible for ceritan jobs than the current vehicles. |
