To manuever against an ambush is a different problem. There are very few ambushes of vehicles in Iraq, and a lot of directional mines. The best design available, as I see it, is the Israeli RAM type vehicle.

Your statement that there are very few ambushes in Iraq, mostly directional mines contradicts what I hear from a number of friends who are in theater (or at WRMC) with the 101st. But, maybe they're wrong.
