>>they are not serious, are they ?<<

Anchorage is a great place for plane-spotting. Periodically I see what looks like a Russian Antonov An-124 parked at the airport cargo terminal, and I wonder what the heck they're hauling thru here. Seems like it would be shorter to fly those MRAPs across the Atlantic.

BTW, the Pentagon just ordered 2,244 new off-road MRAPs for Afghanistan. Just the thing for 21st-century asymmetrical warfare...

Oshkosh gets $1.06B for new MRAPs in Afghanistan
