I believe it was canceled. I believe it was based on a more modern Merkava chasis than the Namer. To be honest, it makes more sense for the Izzy's. Having to haul a 70 ton APC/IFV around would suck. |

Your trying to rationalize with that using nukes, they would cut off water and electricity, they would embargo any form of trade route, and they would let starvation, disease, radiation etc., do the work Instead they are using directed attacks. They are warning non combatants to leave potential target areas. Same old crap, just like after Munich. The Israelis targeted six Arabs involved in the attacks. For the Arabs, any old Jew would do for a kill.

Quote HistoryQuoted: There is an oft repeated Palestinian saying "occupied by the IDF by day and the PA by night." The Palestinian Authority, PLO, and Hama's are all just as abusive towards the Gazans as Israel is. Most of the noncombatants just want peace, and something similar to a normal life. They resent the Israelis for the occupation and for treating them as second class citizens, but they also feel that the Palestinian militias are fucking crazy. The militants encourage kids to provoke the IDF, who acts the way everyone knows they will react, an then the militants use that as an excuse to attack. The while thing is fucked and there are no good guys, just assholes, psychopaths, and the innocents caught in the middle. Israel can't justify softening the occupation or cutting back the security state because there is a credible threat, but that threat is caused by the resentment from the occupation.

The first thought makes sense, the second though I would argue that the M60 has better armor and the same round cast hull and they've got plenty of 60s kicking around. Also I don't imagine this to be a vehicle that would be leading the charge and thus at far less risk of mine/IED strikes. |

Just needs a 30mm Bushmaster or 40Mmm BAE turret on top... I present the Uber-Bradley... Now with 15,000% more armor. America has a few being testing for the GCV program, and I read they stuck a unmanned 30mm cannon on one. Can't find pictures of that, though. The Izzies have tested the Rheinmetall RMK-30 on it. The RMK-30 is the most powerful 30mm gun in the World, but since it's recoilless it doesn't require a mounting system as large as a normal gun. |

To be honest, it makes more sense for the Izzy's. Having to haul a 70 ton APC/IFV around would suck. That's not a Namer of any sort. That's a Sweedish CV-9040 IFV. Aye. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
The last time Israel cut back on gaza strip security, the PLO sent a few waves of suicide bombers into Israel. Their resentment is not about 'occupation'. There is no Israeli occupation of gaza. Gaza is a separate area and controlled by the locals. As in the Izzys gave it to them their own space to live, and self govern. All Israel got in return is suicide bombers and rockets.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EDW88CBo-8Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
There is an oft repeated Palestinian saying "occupied by the IDF by day and the PA by night." The Palestinian Authority, PLO, and Hama's are all just as abusive towards the Gazans as Israel is. Most of the noncombatants just want peace, and something similar to a normal life. They resent the Israelis for the occupation and for treating them as second class citizens, but they also feel that the Palestinian militias are fucking crazy. The militants encourage kids to provoke the IDF, who acts the way everyone knows they will react, an then the militants use that as an excuse to attack. The while thing is fucked and there are no good guys, just assholes, psychopaths, and the innocents caught in the middle. Israel can't justify softening the occupation or cutting back the security state because there is a credible threat, but that threat is caused by the resentment from the occupation.

Quote HistoryQuote HistoryI've never seen this thing before. Looks fucking amazing. 60t APC with a giant roomy interior and individual fold-up seats, all kinds of shelves & stowage. Driver, commander, and dismounts all in the same compartment with plenty of room to move around without crawling all over one another. 
And just look at the fucking size of it: 
After spending years stuck in the arse of a LAV the Namer looks like heaven. Oh, and check this tidbit from the Wiki: The US Army conducted non-developmental vehicle operational assessments of current combat vehicles in 2012 to evaluate capabilities against requirements for purchase of a new IFV for the Ground Combat Vehicle program. One of the vehicles validated was the Namer.[21] On 2 April 2013, the Congressional Budget Office released a report that advised purchasing current vehicles instead of developing a new vehicle for the GCV program. Buying the Namer would cost $9 billion less, and met the required nine-man carrying capacity.[22] The army responded by saying that although the Namer and other vehicles assessed in 2012 met some GCV requirements, no currently fielded vehicle met enough without needing significant redesign.[23] You guys could've had these things but instead you chose to spend billions more on god only knows what (and god only knows how many delays). |

One side protects there people with a shield of missiles the other protects their missiles with a shield of people. Sums up their priorities rather well.

I got it from a news article about the Namer-ish thing with the 30mm cannon. Looks like whoever wrote the article used a pic of an unrelated vehicle  . I was wondering why the chasis looked so different from a normal Merkava MkIII/MkIV.
