Thanks to Jonathan for finding this! Good stuff.
This is the latest on the AAV Upgrade Path.
To call this insufficient would be an understatement. Oh and another reminder of what our Marines are dealing with. Below you see another pic of the AAV's interior.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to crunch numbers to let even the dumbest politician realize that the smallest IED encountered in Afghanistan would cause serious casualties if an AAV hit it during a training or partnership exercise in the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, etc....
We need to do better.
