The four-soldier crew escaped, but one soldier was injured in the attack.

What happened to the Stryker's supposed advantages as a carrier of the 9-man Infantry squad?

The vehicle commander was thrown. The four passengers inside braced themselves and were unharmed.

Doesn't sound like these guys were riding outside.

Archy,

It was a Recce Variant. The photos I saw today looked like there was an LRAS on top. Only 4 guys in one of those.

Cav variant - 4-man crew. Infantry version is the only one that carries an infantry squad.
