I like it. Ingenuity triumphs. Now more work on OPSEC.

Sounds good.
Fast attack force secondary, sounds like.

They will, that stuff can be pretty vicious.
I first mentioned it in the Foxhole thread.
And it seems to have ballooned in FR knowledge by word of mouth since.
I've heard horror stories of people used to light weak coffee experiencing something akin to a kid's sugar rush from the stuff.
So I do hope it's kept safe and used in moderation.
I don't get that 'benefit' from my coffee anymore though, I don't even get jitters from it.

Why not, the Cobra is a much better vehicle, but it is still a troop/cargo carrier. If you want a security vehicle that is armored, but isn't totalled in one shot, go with the ASV the MPs use or something (that something is NOT the Stryker!!!).

Then I hope they make them shaped like dogs soon.

No Dingos. Very small conference with a lot of attention given to new gear for soldiers.
