for pointing out this article:
Special Defense Department Briefing on Armored Vehicles ( Text )
Levels 1, 2, 3???
"up-armored"???
Buncha gobbledegook if ya ask me.
There's no doubt that adding armor adds protection,
but I still think the media is stirring up a stink just because a Humvee isn't as heavily armored as an Abrams.
When are they gonna insist that all the troop's uniforms be lined with 23 layers of kevlar bubble-wrap?
