america should use the australian bushmaster it fits like 8 or so troops and they eats ied's and rpg's for lunch lol ,i think like only a few have been taken out in 9years
@cavalryscoutdelta I agree the backseat is uncomfortable as hell after long missions because for some reason they think the CROWS is the best thing in the fucking world. I hate that stupid thing so much. The M-ATV itself is a great vehicle and without it half my platoon would of probably been killed.
i had to do a career cruising thing for school and my number one thing i would be good at was being a armored assault vehicle driver now i cant wait to join the army
Hey guys... unless you have ever been in one or have/been given intimate knowledge of how one of these work you really have no business talking. Being in the military, having sat in one of these and been on patrol I know what they can do... save lives. As long as you observe the safety systems and follow your training you reduce your likelihood to serious injury or death.
ok first of all pay attention to the video.. these vehicles were designed to defeat IED attacks.. just like the MRAPS.. and no the humvee is outdated and isnt reliable at all! i have pictures from my first tour in 04' with the humvees loosing wheels cuz the axle couldnt support the weight its holding. plus when an IED hits a humvee .. YOUR ALL DEAD.. so stop complaining that this is a waste of money i say we put you in a humvee and let u drive on a Afghanistan road
@USN1985 i would have said "nuke em" if that was even close to my point. some of us are big hearted enough to care about the soldiers AND ALL THE CIVS GETTING KILLED. dumbass.
Hmmm, let's see. If a soldier is killed in an IED attack, the SGLI pays his family up to 450,000. If you have anywhere from 3-5 men riding in one humvee, and all are killed, the government not only is out 3-5 soldiers, but they now have to fork over up to 2,250,000. So, even if you're a cold-hearted bastard that doesn't give a shit about troop safety, at least you can sleep easy knowing that it still saves money in the end.
LMAO, and you think that in your short little enlistment they've taken 400,000 dollars from your account? How much do you pay a month? $60? That would be $720 a year, and barely $2,880 in a 4-year enlistment. Someone should really explain the concept of the SGLI to you better.
@USN1985 someone should really explain how insurance works to you better smart ass... you have however many million people paying 60 dollars a month. the insurance company gambles they arent gonna all die at once. The SERVICE member pays for his insurance.. not the government..
Sorry, but last I checked the Department of Veterans Affairs was a department of the GOVERNMENT. So yes, it's the GOVERNMENT that pays out that sum when a service member dies. I thoroughly understand the concept of an insurance company, dipshit, but we aren't in Allstate's hands. So it IS in the government's best interest to keep our asses alive.
@USN1985 ooook ,, you obviously dont know how to do simple math.. or understand why government doesnt give a fuck about a measley 400k if you die, so just stfu, youve made yourself sound dumb enough
No, that would be you, guy. But please, enlighten us with your infinite knowledge. So far all you've done is insulted me without supporting your own cause.

@USN1985 When I was in the Army we could only get up to $400,000. And that was optional, you really dont have to get any at all.

No, you got the acronym wrong. The "M" is short for MRAP, meaning "Mine Resistant Ambush Protected".
