      Without a dumb hahashka, Hammer is a well-established machine. Enemies of the Republics gain. The answer is a commensurate supply of anti-tank systems and borders, although it is not easy to get into the rushing Hammer with the AGS.

            This is not a "bad car", it is dumb and dumber.
            Only an idiot with TIRE TIPS over DRY sand will be tormented all day.
            Disembarkation is made in the morning. And the shooting where the armored personnel carrier pulls them out is evening.
            You can reduce tire pressure, you can (bless the sea nearby) pour sand with water, you can pull it out with a winch (how many soldiers will not find a suitable tree - you can hammer a peg into the ground). Ten, well, thirty minutes of all the work.
            And Hamer is a good car.

        Well-established new Hammers, and not the trash that was already supplied to Ukraine.
        To only maintain them in working condition you need a brutal amount of dough. Ukraine does not have it. It is not known how many of those hundred Hammers still run.

      AM General will deliver 40 Hammer medical SUVs


      Most likely we are talking about M997A3
      HMMWV family ambulance configuration. These combat vehicles were equipped with armor protection to safely take the wounded from the battlefield to medical centers. The ability to transport up to four patients with severe injuries, eight outpatients - or a combination of both types - as well as medical personnel and equipment.
      The advertisement indicates
      Built for all types of roads

      Also - Fully loaded ambulances can climb the slopes of 60 percent, and overcome the lateral slope to 40 percent.
      It’s clear that the advertisement ...
      Earlier, the United States handed over the BARTEK B4731 ambulances developed on the basis of the Hammer car to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

          but where to shove weapons?
          Re-equipment will come out a pretty penny. Ammunition even gazelles can be brought up civilian. Firms are required to comply with all requests of the APU.
