How many have successful combat employment?

My 2006 S2000 goes topless faster than a Cayman. No sawzall required. (It also goes faster topless, but I digress.)

Because Tankopnik.

Oh noes! You broke the embargo!

Toyota HiLux Technicals: Take a widely available, easy to maintain, hard to destroy small truck, add weapons, and ...

Good call on the Hellfires, but the Navy should go back and look at its own data on the swarm threat. LPD-17 CSQT trials and subsequent cannon work revealed the tremendous potential of 30mm APFSDS and HEAB against small boat swarms.

BCT sapper companies are now Bradley-equipped, by the way. Non-BCT engineers still have 113s, though.

Only to the uninformed, or those overdue at the optometrist. :)

Yeah, the 577 is a bit more risky than the Brad in those conditions; lighter weight and narrower track width.

Ah, Soldiers. Give a soldier two cannonballs and leave him alone in the desert for 24 hours and he can break one and lose the other.
