Default MUNGO already in use

http://216.239.37.104/translate_c?hl...UTF-8%26sa%3DG

While US troops get blown away in antiquated Hummers the MUNGO is
operational with KSK already with no losses.

You keep trying and keep missing. They have two entirely different missions.
You would understand this if you had actually served in the military and didn't
have an anti U.S. bias.

If someone in Kansas came up with a pill that cured cancer you would probably
tell us it was discovered first by your beloved Waffen SS.

The definition of insanity seems to apply to you: you keep trying the same
stuff expecting a different result.

Armoured Hummers are proof agaist the same things Mungo is - both are
toast to an RPG - did you actually read the quote page?

"Protection level

The MUNGO defeats NATO 7.62x51 standard ammunition, hand grenades and
has an optional protection kit against AP-Mines."

How would this help against a 155mm shell rigged as an IED, or an RPG,
two very common methods of atack in Iraq?

Stop trying to confuse poor Arndt with facts! Geeze, you expect him to both
*read* and *understand* the various articles he cites as "proof" for his
lunatic rants?
