Right now the Hummers are IED magnets in any war.Putting extra armor will only make the 4x4 slower and more prone to mechanical problems.The russian one is great for personal use but put them in war zone it will not protect the passengers.Russians do know how to make all terrain trucks though,they can go thru anything.....

wait, what?

Hummers are IED magnets because of extra armor? Hummers cannot withstand IED attacks. The only thing that can really survive an IED attack is a tank, or certain armoured troop carriers. A hummer is a truck with slight reenforcements (doors are bulletproof, etc). This wont protect from explosion
