Fox news reported it is being used in Afghanistan to move supplies. I wonder if they have a more advanced version tucked away some place fully loaded. Thousands of these with mounted machine guns and rockets moving towards me would make run.

It can climb up steep mountains without roads and blow up the enemy? The Fox News article said it was just being used to supply troops where trucks can reach.

Another waste of taxpayers dollars.

Imagine how much body armor could be purchased instead.
