I like the concept and versatile platform. I just don’t think it’s as scaled down as it could be. Too much personal gear and extraneous crap. These aren’t like a vehicle designed to carry enough supplies for for extended missions. These are “get in & get out” vehicles. I’d rather see them smaller but used in larger numbers. One less crewman per vehicle means you can add 1 more vehicle with the same total # of crew. A smaller vehicle profile / signature means better concealment, much more agility, and increased speed and travel distance.

Check out this video, looks like they can hide them pretty well and with a range extendable to 600mi they are intended to be able to go deep and stay awhile.
Although in the video it is obvious they are only loaded for a short joy ride, not exactly the same vehicle but close.
In Desert Storm they were used to shadow and report on troop/armor movements and laser targeting of armor and installations.
