U.S. Marines, Norwegian Forces Integrate Strikemaster Missile System on Jan Mayen... by Sgt. Noah Masog

 

This is so interesting. The USMC and Norwegians both bought the same missile but diverged on how they would deploy it. The Marines were so anxious to have a "leap" into the future went the unmanned route. The Norwegians were more sensible and decided to put it on a protected mobility vehicle instead. I think the Norwegians got it right. Even if the Marines were determined to put it on the JLTV then stretching it and adding an extra axle, yes it would still be manned but it would have been more cost effective AND I think more effective in its role. Additionally a properly stretched JLTV could have mounted other missile pods (depending on weight). Regardless check out the Norwegian solution.

That carry strap looks like a problem but Soldiers liked it in testing so who am I to doubt their input.  Still...

I personally believe that the Polaris MRZR as a robotic vehicle to serve with the  manned variant would be ideal. For the Marine Corps that is. 

Sidenote.  The Combat Camera Soldier has one helluva names.  FOUR names? Just wild.
