It's probably going to need the reinforced suspension of the MGS, and it's not going to be quite as mobile or air-mobile as the current ICV (which is two tons lighter than the Dragoon). Maybe I'm just being pessimistic, but it feels like the Stryker is forever being cast as having potential to do this, that, and the other thing, but it's never very good at whatever it's supposed to do; sort of a jack-of-all-trades, master of none kind of thing.
