Please, don't shout! We can here you very well
Are you sure that US Army/Marines use any Luchs? I seriously doubt it. US Army only uses Fuchs, or actually Fox as it is called by them in NBC version. They use it since Gulf War 1.
I only have some photos of Fox from previous Gulf War.

Sorry Vodnik, I think the question was about OIF.... There were (and I have the photos to prove it) of Fuchs deployed to Iraq. Bat-21,take a look in my photo archives (jim's stuff) and you may find what you are looking for, Jim

Jim,
I know what the question was about, that's why I wrote that I only have some photos from previous Gulf conflict and that's why I didn't post them. I know Foxes where also in OIF, I just don't have any recent photos.
Still, my point is that no Luchs are used by US armed forces, only Fuchs/Fox.

I might have some in my files. I saw newsreel footage during OIF. Fuchs is pretty standard. Try the CentCom homepage and look through the archives....thats where i saw them..Jim
