Doesn't that seem like an awful lot of vehicles for a relatively small military?:

Not if you were to use an MRAP for every vehicle your military needs. They are a defensive military and now all their trucks are more survivable.

65,000 on active duty. 4500 MRAPs - enough for about 36,000 troops. Doesn't seem out of the ordinary.

I bet many of these will be used by paramilitary forces as well, like Fergusonstan PD.

They'd also like other stuff too:

Can you provide a link to pics of MRAPs in Ferguson, MO?

I have only seen pics of the STLCPD Lenco Bearcat.

With the position that UAE holds in the Middle East, I think what they are asking for would serve them well.

They like the Apache's also
