@madashelldude in case you didn't know, the Marine Corps accounts for only about 5% of the entire defense budget, and this vehicle only accounts for a fraction of that alloted budget. So instead of attacking this vital piece of machinery which will end up saving the lives of Marines and Sailors, think about something else to complain about.

This vehicle is sick! 30mph in the water? damn.

To everyone who's saying this is a waste of money, try finding out WHY research and development is going into this. The vehicle that it is replacing, the AAV, had poor protection that put its passengers in danger. I'm not sure, but I think a marine's life might be worth more than you saving a couple bucks a month. That's just me though.
