Horness:
The "Snatch" Land Rovers were never meant for this kind of work, but we insist on putting our troops in them while American troops are safe 'n' sound in RG31's.

Both British built as well.  :roll:

well its about time they did something but we will still get crap kit!!!! the thing that annoys me most is when u work with americans there body armour is really good when i wear my issue one all i have are two plates front and rear and ther only about 10"wide by 20" long where as the yanks have a full plate front and rear  :evil: i feel so save when wearing it........ as for the landys yes they are not upto the job for patroling  :roll: and are cramped when fully loaded its about time they gave us proper kit not half measures like stop gaps like we have. Instead of trying to make evertything are selfs why dont they just buy it of the shelf e. from the yanks :evil:  then we would get it quicker :shock:  sorry rant over :roll:

Jake:
Maybe its time for Land Rover to re-invent the Forward Control as a British Hummer type of motor?
Now that would be cool
