Doesn’t that seem like an awful lot of vehicles for a relatively small military?:
Not if you were to use an MRAP for every vehicle your military needs. They are a defensive military and now all their trucks are more survivable.
65,000 on active duty. 4500 MRAPs - enough for about 36,000 troops. Doesn’t seem out of the ordinary.
I bet many of these will be used by paramilitary forces as well, like Fergusonstan PD.
They’d also like other stuff too:
Can you provide a link to pics of MRAPs in Ferguson, MO?
I have only seen pics of the STLCPD Lenco Bearcat.
With the position that UAE holds in the Middle East, I think what they are asking for would serve them well.
They like the Apache’s also
