I'm interested in this, also.. I want to build a Stryker "in action", but I really don't want to deal with the PE slat... So, any good links to pics of Strykers in Afghanistan without slat?

Just register to download the hi-res pics (it's free )

But maybe the Strykers currently deployed in Afghanistan have all been fitted with slat armor ...AFAIK the pics above have been taken in 2009...
