not to be an asshole but that doesn't look very tactical. I mean with the hummer they can be in and out of a situation but this thing looks like it would be a sitting duck.

Also how do troops get out of this thing quickly without getting hurt?

other than that I'm all for protecting the troops.

I don't think it will be used widely by the infantry units. My understanding is that it will be used for specialty jobs like intel and EOD.

I'm no expert, but I'm thinking all vehicles are going to have to make some kind of compromise in combat situations.
Hopefully with enough choices, the best vehicle can be chosen for the jobs needed to be done.

Jump out those back double doors, and do a parachute landing fall?
