Wouldnt that make tanks less maneuverable?
Kill a tank, kill the troops? I would think you would want the entire force to be able to scatter across the field. I am no Patton, so I could be wrong.
I was thinking more along the lines of getting the troops close to the front, then have the ability to press a button to disengage the trailer if the tank needs to quickly maneuver.
It seems like a heavily armored v-hull would be good for protecting troops traveling up and down roads in places like Afghanistan.
