Has anyone any feedback on how are the up-armoured Humvees performing in Iraq?
There seems to be a lot of Humvees, armoured I suppose, getting knocked out by RPGs, have seen many pictures of blazing Humvees on CNN.
It has been mentioned here that Eagle is the favoured option for the LTV, should there be a re-think, as I'm sure the O'Gara-Hess armouring is as good as GD's (Mowag's)? I know there were some problems with O'G-H at the start of the programme, however this was reportedly corrected and O'G-H paid a fine.

ps I originally intended to add this to a thread regarding the possibility of the DF going to Iraq, but the thread seems to have disappeared?
