No, this is not intended to back lash at anybody, this is just to help out those who have never served on this vehicle or been in an area where this vehicle has been seen.
As you can clearly see in the picture, the old style troop seats are visible and on the ramp, clearly an older style body armor.

Here is the sight where theis picture came from. Great reference photos and lots of pictures of the reactive armor and of the A3.
