I think those trucks also get a lot of credit for saving lives. It was amazing to see some of them coming in with severe IED damage, and the drivers were unscathed. When those trucks came in, the add-on armoured HLVWs and the Western Star highway tractors (again with add on armour) were relegated to FOB duties. If either of those two vehicle types had to travel between KAF and the FOBs, it was on a flatbed being towed by the Mercedes Actros.



It was money well spent on that fleet.
