    Kaine is now Hillary's Sarah Palin.

    The applique armor is different, or at least much thicker. This shot from BAE's twitter shows what looks like a retractable shield for when missiles are being reloaded.

    So in this video the GDLS rep says that the Griffin as displayed weighs 27 tons and is armored against 7.62, with modular packages to increase armor. He also mentions the Abrams like turret weights 1/3 that of a normal Abrams. There is also some information on anti-UAV systems tested on a Stryker.

    So the turret is an Abrams turret without the armor cavities? That was not expected.

    Someone at the New York Times was really willing to risk going to jail just to show that Trump follows US tax laws and makes rational decisions.

    I was referring to the Ajax family of vehicles and not the namesake. It is true that I could have said ASCOD, but I went with the most modern iteration.
  9. Ramlaen
    So much for my speculation that it is based on the Ajax.

    That .gif makes it really easy to understand what is going on.

    The Stryker recently tested with a laser will be on display as well.

    General Dynamics Griffin at AUSA 2016. An Ajax variant perhaps?

    This is how I feel, Hillary "won" but Trump didn't "lose".

    A basic guide to telling the two Stryker hulls apart.

    This vehicle says ICVV, but it has some sort of equipment on the hull front that doesn't look like a plow or mine roller mount.

    Super Forty, S40, 40x180mm whatever.

    The ~2km range of a infantry fired Javelin is primarily a limitation of the old CLU's thermal sight, so when it jumps to 4km+ with a CROWS functioning as the CLU, it implies the TIM1500 can resolve targets at that distance.
  20. Ramlaen
    I don't have any spec numbers for the optic on hand, but the fact that it was used to fire Javelins at targets over 4km away indicates to me that the range isn't an issue. Why would the US have to integrate Kongsberg's optic when Kongsberg already did? I cannot comment on the validity of an anecdote, but ergonomics and an unmanned turret is a red flag to me. I recall DTR praising the turret in their articles, I will have to reread them.

    Honestly I feel bad for the younger folks. If this is the first election that they have participated in or paid attention to, it is going to be so boring for them in 4 years.

    It makes sense for the US Army to use the same optics as they do on other Kongsberg RWS. I agree on not modifying Bradleys with that turret, the US Army's has too much else on its plate that is a higher priority. As for the LAND 400, I recall the MCT-30 being the most praised feature of the LAV(CRV).

    I read a claim that the blue cable was a primer, but to me it seems like that would not evenly ignite the propellant.

    Underwater shock trials.
