We sent a bunch of these to Ukraine. They didn't perform well - got stuck in the mud easily, the armour wasn't sufficient for the threats, and the height didn't help with not getting hit. They're appropriate for colonial policing operations, which is why they're perfect for ICE, provided the Minnesotans start shooting back
