I am starting to doubt the reports of such kill numbers of tanks. I read where the Iraqis are usuing modified SUVs and Toyota trucks with mounted ordinance--like the so called "technicals" in Somalia. Those might account for the kill count mistaken for tanks. I have not heard of Iraq armor moving out to engage in such numbers yet.

I know you are doubting it, but I'm not.

Destro, you sound like you're saying that Apache gunners can't tell the difference between a Toyota pickup truck and an MBT.

It may very well be that the only Iraqi vehicles moving are these armed SUVs. I would venture to say that a majority of the Republican Guard divisions MBTs and IFVs are already dead and the few remaining are in static defensive postures behind berms abandoned and/or awaiting death.
