Luxury Vehicle for War Zones
We've heard of cars that have been reinforced with bulletproof glass and siding from time to time, but our experience with defensive measures for cars is limited, so we were a bit surprised to learn about the Combat Reconnaissance/Patrol Vehicle. After all, the vast majority of drivers have no need for a fully-armored, aquatic military vehicle - although if you're going to have one, you may as well make sure it's comfortable, too. This particular ex-Russian Military vehicle is loaded up with a huge sound system, GPS, TV and DVD player, in addition to what appears to be leather seating and carpeted floors. It also has some practical features such as sonar detection, a night vision system and a periscope.
You can see some more pictures of it after the jump.

I can't belive what this people could do with a militar vehicle.

Now if only those bunch of interior luxuries were incorporated into a Hummer, that I would be interested (at the very least).

Can you really concentrate on driving and check a periscope at the same time? This is a great vehicle though. Hopefully the driver doesnt drive while on their cell phone (for the live lee hood - like robinhood you see - of the rest of us).
