Looks like a pipe dream, not combat effective. Perhaps the little two seater could be used as a scout but I don't see the point in putting 20 soldiers in a vehicle that can be taken out by one weapon… not enough armor.

LOOKS nice but the Marines have a tracked amphib and the Navy Has the LCat but the thing I am wondering is simple PROTECTION! it wont mean a darn thing about 20 men on the ground per craft if they can get an RPG-7 hit and all are lost……its sad but the truth lies in a simple fact… ASK THOSE ON THE GROUND WHAT THEY NEED and MAKE IT HAPPEN dont listen to the politicians that are safe at home and have not had a round fired at them and seen their brothers and sisters in arms die around them plain and simple. IF this thing works (which I doubt) then great but I wont hold my breath any. What we really need is better protection on our troops and CURRENT vehicles in service NOW not 20+ years from now

That's pretty sweet. I kinda agree with the people who are talking about the cost to benifit ratio, and it compared to that of a hovercraft. So, as much as I think this is cool, a hovercraft works just as well, and sometimes we get so into the abilites, we forget about protecting the troops. I don't really know about this one. It's pretty friggen sweet though!

The vehicle seems to be a good idea, however, i have not seen the vehicle actually perform in a combat setting or environment so i can not make a good judgement on the new product being presented.

Great idea, looks “cool”, if performs as they say a huge plus to the troops. Therefor, they won't make it.

Russians did it! no, not quite. but really, what’s the purpose of this? ever hear of a hovercraft? cost-to-benefit analysis? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRDM
