Marines Use Hardened Vehicle in Iraq


OK, here's a real vehicle for the streets of Iraq. The design is refined from years of experience in South Africa and Rhodesia.

"These vehicles are designed from the ground up specifically built to survive IEDs and ambushes. The v-shaped hull assists deflection of a mine or IED blast away from the vehicle's capsule keeping the passengers safe and the vehicle intact. The vehicle is also built to rollover and is equipped with multi-point, racing style harnesses, so if the vehicle rolled 360 degrees the passengers inside would avoid injury."
