Mine Resistance Ambush Protected vehicle.
Mine resistant? Clearly they haven’t met Bubba and Earl.

Meanwhile, my Buddy’s Army Reserve Unit was told that they have no “NEED” for any MRAPS, and to just keep on using their old ‘Nam Era Duece-and-a-halfs.
Even though they are a Combat Engineering Outfit tasked with clearing IEDS…..

My bet is that within 10 years 95% of these will be scrapped, or demilitarized and installed in city parks for kids to climb upon.
I happily recall playing on the SabreJet my city park had when I was a kid. I was smaller than my older brother and could fit into the empty engine space quite comfortably, until the city welded a piece of metal over the jet exhaust to keep us darn kids out of there.
Playing American infidel invader and Taliban mujaheddin with a bunch of kids, with a beast of a vehicle like that, would be hella fun.

Those vehicles might be mine resistant, but they are quite vulnerable to flaming jellied petroleum in glass bottles that have been dropped from tall buildings.
