HumVees were not envisioned to be armored personnel carriers or urban
assault vehicles. They were designed to be 'utility' vehicles and will
continue in that role.

The HMMWV is too big to be suited to urban warfare and as heavy and
expensive as a light armored vehicle. A slightly bigger heavier vehicle
as well armored as the presidential limo and a less expensive M38A1
size are needed and the HMMWV should be slowly phased out. The little
guy should have a purpose built multifuel engine and the big guy should
probably be turbine, like the Abrams tank.
