But is that the same version as like we have in a model, as the front looks not the same?

Probably a double-v hull?

I guess so

Here's the first completed vehicle of the Stryker Double V-Hull, or DVH, program (2012). :

How does a stryker end up in northern Syria? I'm not following the conflict closely, but I was under the impression that USA are not conducting ground operations in Syria. Please enlighten me

Yes, we have had U.S. forces in N. Syria for a few months now. First SF, and Marine units. Supposedly a stability force to protect refugees while hemming in insurgents. They are supposedly working with coalition forces.

Thank you for clarifying. I thought that the only ground operations that was conducted by US were highly "spec-ops" and low profile. I certainly did not expect to see American vehicles with large US-flags .

How does this work out with the Russians? Are Russia not active in northern Syria at all? And what about Turkey? US and turkey certainly have different interests in what groupings in the syrian opposition that should be supported. Am I right?

I don't know if I'm just bad at keeping myself up to date of the events in Syria, or if Swedish media takes little interest in the politics involved in the Syrian situation.

Are these SF versions. seen ones a while back in a book that where inside a C-5/C-17 they looked similar and it said they where SEAL vehicles. look like they are based in the Comand & Contrilol/ Ambulance version.

Technically speaking, in the US context, Rangers are Special Operations Forces (SOF). "Special Forcss" equates to "Green Berets". SEALS use a variant of the Pandur (?), I think.

The 75th Ranger Regiment IS in USSOCOM, but US Rangers are generally NOT considered Special Forces because they don't really have the same "language, rapport, foreign relations, foreign military training, C4SIR, and infrastructure building skillset" as the Green Berets. .
