Dave, The HMMWV (High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle) was designed to perform a multitude of jobs, as the name suggests. Your claim about the HMMWV not being a ”front line” vehicle is unfounded. They were, from day 1 built with intentions to be used as patrol vehicles, armament carriers, ambulances etc. anywhere and everywhere especially on the ”front line”. Furthermore if cost was an issue and it IS, the Gurkha would be a wise choice because it costs LESS than a HMMWV of its caliber.
