Fuel Consumption- Four Gallons to the mile

Needs an APU to keep everything on and idle without consuming a lot of fuel.

Field phone for Infantry coordination had to be re-invented.

Thermal signature moving and at idle is huge. The heat bloom coming off can't be masked by nets with the turbine running.

67 tons is to much for a lot of bridges, ferries, and pontoons.

Amphibious like a brick.
