Caiman MRAP

[swbradley1]

Caimans have a MTV chassis and were/are final assembled at Stewart and Stevenson (BAE) plant in Sealy, TX.

Evidently they did them at two locations, hence the reason I saw them on the road headed south to Fairfield.

Wiki
It is likely that the Cat I will be based on the LMTV, while the Cat II will be based on the MTV. The Cat I Caiman weighs 14 tons and the Cat II version weighs 24 tons which, according to the Vice President of Armor Holdings, is lighter in weight than its competitors.[SUP][2][/SUP] The work will be performed at BAE Systems M&PS facilities located in Fairfield, Ohio and Sealy, Texas.

For those who question local law enforcement being para-military or taken over federally to strip you of your rights or freedoms, search for Oathkeepers. That alone should make you feel easier with local LEOs. Not only are they on the front line with criminals, they are leading the fight to keep you free. I'm fortunate that our agency has an extensive budget as we are a 6000 person agency. We can afford many tools smaller departments can't. Thanks to LESO, the small departments aren't limited to the 38 specials it sounds like some of you think they should be limited to.

Actually Kenny since I work for one of the top universities I could probably drive up and see OSU's in person.

Closest I'll ever to a real (and complete) one.
