Our law makers are so wicked they all ride in bullet proofed luxurious cars but soldiers are given soft skinned Toyota hilux vehicles to face BHT.

it was a planned and coordinated attack, BHT ambushed the patrol vehicles and the soldiers returned a counter fire . They knew they wherr patrolling along that route and eventually they ran into the I.E.D. trap.

A colleague his still battling with the shock and minor injuries from the attack.

NAF regiment

Do we ever? It only becomes an emergency when elected officials and co start running their vehicles into IEDs, then it becomes a problem, until then, they've treated our security personnel as expendable

It was kind of a patrol mission, not all mission in the NA you have MBT available. Trust me you wouldn't want a Vickers Eagle MBT spear heading or leading a convoy, it's too heavy and volunrable.

At least MRAP's for all soldiers or IFV spear heading the convoy then light skinned vehicles at the rear.
