All I kow is the HMMWV was o designed for combat. They should keep the HMMWV for behind the lines transport etc.... and design a new vehicle just for battle. That way each can be designed specifically for one thing rather then combining both </div></BLOCKQUOTE>I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to say but the HMMWV was designed for and used from the beginning as a tactical vehicle. It is most certainly designed for combat.

I think it is more that you do not understand the common battlefield it was designed for and have heard this comment from some other ill-informed person.

Also, the whole point of the HMMWV was to create a vehicle that had multiple uses off of one platform. It created a much easier way of maintaining the fleet. You are suggesting that there is something lacking DUE to this utilizing this common platform process.
