I feel uniquely qualified to comment on this kit, since I served in a Stryker Brigade Combat Team. (SBCT). The Stryker comes in multiple variants, including ones not shown in this video. I operated an M1135 NBCRV which is a Nuclear, Biological, Chemical Reconnaissance Vehicle. It allows Brigade Commanders to survey, detect and cordon off areas of the battlefield contaminated by chemical, biological or nuclear weapons. M1128 MGSs were attached to infantry battalions and operated by tankers (19K MOS) to provide fire support, kind of like how StuGs were in WWII. (Even though they were assault artillery). The TOW carrier belonged to a standalone (organic) infantry company that gave Brigade Commanders incredible tank killing power. The command variant was issued to Battalion commanders and BDE (Brigade) Commanders. There is also an Engineer variant that can tow what is called a MCLC or mine clearing linear charge. It also has small flag holders on the back of the vehicle to drop to mark off a clear lane in a minefield. There is a medic variant too. The last variant is the Scout one. (Can't remember the nomenclature). It has an LRAS3 ("El-raz"), or Long range advanced scout surveillance system, which allows US Army Cavalry Scouts to see incredible distances on the battlefield, allowing recon from safe distances. Strykers are armored to withstand 14.5mm machine gun fire and light shrapnel from artillery, but can be retrofitted with additional armor that allows them to withstand light cannon fire and slat/cage armor to protect from shaped charges. Strykers are the ultimate Swiss Army knife for the US Army, since an SBCT has all of the tools it needs available to it within the brigade, without having to outsource to neighboring units for support.

Hi Hunter Gonzales, I am Peter Yim from Hong Kong China. I love how u describe your life inside your Stryker brigade, but how long had u been inside that brigade and did u equip the VTAC Tomahawk(Stryker vehicles issued)? Lastly I am inviting u to read the world's first(still in production) Tom Clancy's universe and Star Wars Crossover fan fiction on Wattpad!! :-) read here and your experience might be included inside this fanfic-> www.wattpad.com/story/126613878-the-ghost-outsiders-of-mandalore-a-tom-clancy%27s

My father was one of the engineers that actually helped design the Stryker tank! I had him check out pictures of your set, and he says it’s extremely accurate! In fact, his job was to design the automatic loading system for the “cannon” (I forget which cannon it was) variant, and he said the way the add on pack cannon was built, even shows the loading system he designed! They could fire up to 6 shells a minute, before reloading, which was extremely easy and fast.

They keep the back hatch open for the mortar because if they’re not using a LHMBC they will be using aiming stakes. Stakes they physically put out to aim with and reference to.

9:57 That’s actually a really big problem with the recoil system. The Stryker MGS has had a lot of problems with its turrets, and can only carry 18 rounds. Any reloading, repairs, or clearance of stoppages could only be performed by exposed personnel standing atop the vehicle. The autoloader suffered frequent jams and stoppages.
