well that explains that then.
interstingly enough, i was looking at pics the other day of these same vehicles, and one pic shows it in like a car park with about a dozen Ratels...
my assumptions would be the yanks are buying up all the mine protection vehicles they can get.

ooh, sorry, another tangent, the supposed replacement for the ratel, an 8 wheeled jobbie i beleive, any idea what it is?

thanks
