9. I can't believe anyone survived going over a mine in an AAV
like in the article. I'm going to edit what I'd just written because it could give away tactics, but in general, these vehicles are weak in order to float. There's no water in the middle of the desert, this isn't where they were intended to be used. The "Triple AV, or Advanced Amphibious Assualt Vehicle" was supposed to be released last year, but I'm guessing Rummy dropped funding in order to make way for his Stryker bullshit.
