MRAP/MaxxPro Hot-Swaps Ukrainian Troops, Soaks Two Drone Strikes

This Go-Pro clip shows a MRAP/MaxxPro replacing Ukrainian troops in the field by dropping off fresh troops and their supplies. The new squad goes about their business Rhodesian-style, kicking out packs of ammo and water before the cameraman and his squad replace them in the MRAP. As they ride out of the area, the vehicle is hit twice by Russian FPV drones.


Ordinarily, “hit twice by drones” would suggest a very different, much more NSFW-type video, but the MRAP gonna MRAP, soaking the impacts while keeping its cargo safe. Although it’s still probably a harrowing experience, it’s got to feel better for these guys to be picked up by a vehicle specifically designed to thwart explosions. Five stars to this Uber driver.
