Humvee replacement

So, I've heard the Humvee is being replaced. What's taking its spot?

The real question is how pwned did the guys inside get?

The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.

Ive just recently read that the first death in a had just happened. The guy was in the turret and did not know if the cause of death was because of the explosion or if it was due to the vehicle flipping over.

I don't think they will replace the HMMWV completely, as they are a bit too large to perform the light cavalry scout role and are very top heavy. Another vehicle would have to be developed to replace the HMMWV in that capacity. The MRAP is not the panacea, and the enemy is already adapting to them, so it should be just another tool in the bag, with its use based on METT-TC.
