    Yeah I don't get the tire size either. They need these non-pneumatic tires from Michelin http://www.michelintweel.com/

    All I have to say is that it is interesting to see the army going back to the ideas that were behind the 9th infantry division(motorized).

    The small tires somehow reminds me of this vehicle:

    I am not sure which vehicle offers the better off road performance.
