I’ve spent enough time in enough tactical vehicles, no interest in driving a tank, APC or self propelled gun.

They (higher ups) haven’t learned anything though, they have killed countless prototypes that were near completion and fielding because they lost “the beauty pageant”

Extremely cheap to operate, the exact reason a lot of “legacy” equipment remains in service.

About time FA gets some writers that actually either know a lot about defense or are in “the industry"

Steve Saleen and the Saleen brand may be the only person on earth to out Jerry Wiegert/Vector at Jerrys own game, big promises and absolutly no delivery, though I actually have faith in Jerry because he once made great cars, Saleen is just a clown.

What do you expect, they are trying to keep up momentum after IMSA made them take on EVEN MORE WEIGHT.

I’d pay that much for the red FR200 which I think they want less for. The Focus enthusiast crowd is pretty small, so I’m not surprised by how the poll is going.

Team that isn't Chevy or VAG wins, suddenly they have the heaviest car with least power in the field :rolls eyes:

I see/hear it 6 times a day from various uninformed idiots.

his car also has 300+ more HP, weights almost 200 pounds more and he probably drives it like a silly goose. I give mine a good flogging now and then, but it's a daily and I drive like I have some sense.

They still look new.

So sick of the “they wear out in 5000 miles” bullshit.

If the company has the money to build the lot of their property who cares?

The 3.5 is a monster.

I'm rapidly approaching 8 years in, just so over it.

Nice attempt at a humble brag, except I’m not a mouth breathing moron and know that just like every other country, there’s plenty of open space in the UK.

I had to park in the non Harley motorcycle parking lot when I worked at the plant in York... Because I had a BMW.

Yeah, “big (insert service)“ and high op tempo has a way of burning people out.

Wondered the same, uncle is a retired Army aviator (OH-58D) and I remember him having to fly from Fort Polk to somewhere inland while Katrina approached.

It does not have them, from what I understand, they use the SM-2 missile onboard as its interceptor of choice.
