2300?
If this is true, nobody was protecting the perimeter, or...
5.56mm

No doubt many of those Humvees will be used as suicide weapons in the coming battle of Baghdad.

How hard would it be to hide a special chip in these vehicles attached to a small explosive to be activated when stolen?

No sweat, we’ll buy more. Send over some troops, do some re-training, rinse and repeat.

It had to be intentional, I mean if you are bugging out, would you ditch your vehicle and retreat on foot? It makes no sense.

Obama should just ship weapons and supplies to ISIS and eliminate the middle man.

Military grade Lojack!
That ought to be standard military issue. Incorporate it in the essential electronics and seal it in a tamperproof enclosure.
I would definitely require it in tanks, helicopters, manpads, etc. I would also incorporate GPS into it so the asset could not be smuggled out of the theater. We don’t need manpads here!

This would be bad enough if we were talking soccer balls but weaponized trucks. Why the hell do we offer people who won’t fight for themselves all the guns, ammo and equipment they could give away. Hell they could run ISIS flat with 2,300 humvees.

It had to be intentional, I mean if you are bugging out, would you ditch your vehicle and retreat on foot? It makes no sense. That's exactly what I was thinking. In fact, if you've got humvees and they don't, wouldn't that give you a distinct advantage in street battles if you're protecting [the city] from an invading force?
