Re: [AMC-List] Afghanistan!



Only the civilian H1.  Military H1 production will continue to run high.  I saw some of the newer models that contained some good design changes while interviewing at AM General a couple months ago.  However, they are still unaware of a lot of the threats to the vehicles.  I tried to point out as many things as I could to them that I learned while in Iraq last year.  I basically lived in an 1114 as a 31B and got to see many different types of attack damage up close.

Its too bad the military doesn't share more information with the manufacturer.  They just give them requirements and not much else.  They weren't even familiar with what EFP's (explosive-formed projectile) were or that they were being used to defeat 1114's.  :(
