Walkaround (German Bundeswehr HMEE) :

"The Army's new High Mobility Engineer Excavator saved the life of a Soldier in Iraq May 29, [2009], when an anti-tank mine exploded as he was digging a culvert trench near South Balad Ruz.
The device exploded and immobilized the Army's replacement to the Small Emplacement Excavator, the HMEE. Sgt. Adam Smith Jr., 9th Engineer Battalion, 172nd Infantry Brigade, walked away from the wreckage.
"I'm thankful I was in the HMEE and not the SEE," Smith said.
"I am extremely happy with the blast protection offered by the HMEE; it saved my Soldier's life," said Capt. Andrew Maxa, Company B, 9th Engineer Battalion commander."

Love the vehicle but it is hard to get excited about the kit with it coming from Panda.
