What GI Joe Needs?
Ok, I don't know if we've done this before, but we have done somehing similar...tell me what you think the GI Joe could use more of. For Example, they have the RHINO, Monster Blaster APC, the old '84 APC and the WArthog Tracked APC, but what they DON'T have is a multi wheeled APC like the Marine Corps LAV (Or he Army Stryker for those of you who think that the Army came up with that awesome Idea we have been using for like 30+ years! LOL!!)
REASON; All of the APC's listed above can be taken out by a landmine blowing off one wheel! A Multi wheeled APC can lose up to 5 (in the case of the 8 wheeled LAV) and still keep rolling.
What else the GI Joe Team Needs; An Osprey. REASON; Since the Tomahawk, we have not seen a troop carrying Chopper that can deliver troops into battle and has the ability to allow troops to rappel from the sides or back into the fight! And if NOT an Osprey per se, a troop carrying airship that can hover!
A Landing Craft!
Reason; In GI Joe Issue #1 they showed the LCT, which Gave GI joe the ability to make amphbious landings with troops AND equipment. The APC and the WHALE allow Troops to come ashore in a fight, but what about equipment? (Mobats, Maulers, Vamps) I mean if they can make a giant MobileHelipad (The General) then why not a decent sized Landing craft!?!?
Ok...there are MY Suggestions....Agree? Disagree?
As Mike MEyers says "discuss...."
