I guess my old 113 will now be a target on some range now, if it's not sold to some country. I had a love/hate relationship with those tracks.

You and me both. We were swimming our tracks at Ft. Knox when I was a plt. ldr. in D/10th Cav., 194th Armd. Bde. (Sep.) in the spring of '80. Note my baby-faced 17-year-old driver. . . .

Is the guy on your photo left holding a LAW, and acting like he's going to fire it out of the cargo hatch ?

C Co., 3-1st Inf., 11th LIB, Americal from late July to early Dec. '70, when they made me a combat correspondent/photographer. Sadly, our AO was one of the most heavily inundated with Agent Orange between Aug. and Nov. '70--saddling me with numerous Agent Orange conditions. . . .

WHY? It sounds like a waste of money to me, and why do designers insist on making armored Viks so tall. A low profile is better, and safer for all. I get ground clearance.

I don't know why redesigning the 113 with better armor and weapons was a bad idea.i must not be in the same reality as the think newer is better if emp hits all the new stuff will be junk but per 1985 will still work so new is over rated to me
