M1117...A technological advantage or an AIR CONDITIONED COFFIN?
The M1117 (ASV-Armored Security Vehicle) is a fine vehicle indeed. Four wheels, armored and can have both M2 and MK19 mounted (and fire at the same time) in the floating turret. Very good vehicle, but what happens when an EFP rips through it and yo uhave to squeeze out of the hatches while wearing FBR? You get burned. Bad. Quick, very armored (more armor than the Stryker) and keeps as cool as a freezer. I guess it just depends on who you are (if you like this vehicle or not). If you're a little afraid of roling outside the wire then you'll love this thing. If you like to dismount and run down the enemy while throwing hot lead...then you'll dispise this thing.
A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week.
