Gibbs High Speed Amphibians.

Do you remember the buzz when Gibbs first unveiled their line of military amphibious vehicles?  Excitement was in the air and many predicted that these vehicles would be in the hands of Special Operations Command.

That hasn't happened...and for the life of me I can't figure out why.

    Weren't they gobbled up by Lockheed Martin?

    The ATV / Jet-ski looks awesome. If marcase is right then its business as usual. There was a brilliant news report posted on Think Defense a few months ago about a Detroit company that bid for the Army contract for light vehicles. I am sure you have seen it, and that should tell you all you need to know about whats happened here. I am pretty sure LM will enter the designs into another competition with reduced capability and quadruple costs soon enough. Such is the world we live in....
