As the Article says, it does have a bit of a Mad Max thing going for it.

Its fast, got a grenade launcher and a few machine gun mounts, looks like it would be good for use in Afghanistan, as the article says, I'm not sure an open vehicle like that would handle the IEDs that are planted everywhere in Iraq.

Though I have to say, this comment on the article made me laugh;

A serious bit of kit indeed - however, why has it taken so long to deploy and still will not be with our front-line forces until "early next year"!
Given the size of it, the weight of it, and the potential speed of it, no doubt some pen-pusher will decide that it does not conform to E.U. regulations on carbon footprint.
