US Marine Corps AAV & ABV live fire in prep for ITX ...pics by Cpl. Jesus Sepulveda Torres

Note:  Wondered what happened to the Assault Breacher Vehicle (ABV).  I hadn't seen any in the Marine Corps for a bit and thought that they might have all been transferred to the Army.  Good to see them back in the wild, but it does illustrate a point I've been trying to make (and doing it poorly)...we must rationalize our planning going forward.  There is a place for conducting a 1,000 mile raid via MV-22 but we can't neglect bread and butter operations like deliberate assaults, and for that we need Armor...HEAVY ARMOR!
