BAQUBAH, Iraq - The newest version of the Army’s popular Stryker combat vehicle is garnering poor reviews here from Soldiers assigned to man its tank-like hull.

(RG) You see its not just the Brits that get kit that there not happy with, it seems that this new Stryker has many problems judging by the comments from the men who use the weapon system. I first heard about the Stryker when I read Colby Buzzells book My War he seemed like the first version, especially the sexy female voice that would acquire the targets for you. I hope they sort these problems out soon and if the Americans want to get rid of some I know a few British soldiers in Afghanistan that would welcome them with open arms warts and all.
