    Truck uncontrollable after bump.

    Nope..we can drive and fire on the fly over any type of ground, much the same as the P30s can. (and strikers etc). They (All) do not fluctuate, The throttles are pre set..and off you go. Where planes (crash( unfortunately)), they can operate. In the mode and tactical function as intended.

    M923A2 won't idle and dies when put into gear

    If that truck is computer controlled, it is a fair bet the problem lies in the (Dreaded) E.C.U.
