Leave it to the Japanese.


Pretty smart, I think.

You could take it a step further. Add on to the rack to make it able to hold 3
bikes on each side. Land, quickly mount up 6 soldiers with full gear on bikes,
and dismount. 6 troops on bikes could carry a lot of gear a great distance, in
a big hurry. That could be a pretty formidable force, I would think.

How about fully armored 4 wheel ATV motorcycles? Are they made? Seems like
they could be made to withstand even a land mine. Small and quick enough that
they would be a whole lot harder to hit with a rocket propelled grenade. Put a
squad on an Osprey, and go out and rock 'n roll!
