Before finishing the video I was going to say that wheel hop is a very bad thing. The forces involved are huge. Idiots doing burnouts in there front wheel drive cars will often crack the transmission case because of wheel hop.

Secondly locking the rear wheels while the front are still slowing the vehicle is a recipe for spinning out. Try this on a motorcycle if you want to kill yourself

This vehicle is in desperate need of some proper ABS brakes.
It also needs a serious redesign, it looks like a school bus they just bolted some armor on, i mean, there is a reason why other armored vehicles of that size use 6 or 8 wheels.
And i think this video is pretty good evidence of this.

Wow...terrible.

And this is why we test!

Well it stopped, didn't it?

And this is why we can't go to Mars...

This is why we look at other designs so we don't repeat the mistakes of past...

No offense dude but it's really not hard to see that that vehicle is not a 6X6. It could be the Cougar 4X4 though.

And yet the US has the biggest military budget in the world.

Yer right...I blame brain diarrhea-

which former senator, congressman or retired pentagon apparatchik is responsible for this piece of crap?

Right. Most countries just put stuff like that in the field. >> ^hpqp:
