Army tear down and rebuild... in under 4 minutes!!
« on: December 01, 2011, 10:54:08 AM »
Came across this video... It was a show and these guys are a well oiled team. Yes there was training and tons of practice, however, the real idea here is to show the design simplicity engineered into this war machine. It was crucial that soldiers be able to replace damaged parts quickly to get mobile again when in combat. In WWII combat support wasn't what it is today.  Very cool...

I remember watching the same thing 2 years ago I think, except they did it in a field instead of a town

I'd like to see that thing tackle a speed bump let alone a combat situation.
