[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2671724, member: 29706"] The sad thing is most of this hardware is gifted to these departments and it is not properly maintained. On top of that very few if any people in the department can actually properly operate it and when it does break down which it will there is no money in the budget to make repairs. This is a glutenous program that generally wastes hardware that could be put to much better use and likely is fit for use in it's intended purpose. All I see is a way for the military to justify continued and expanding budgets, they give away this hardware that they then need to replace with new and the local departments are more than happy to get it so they can try and justify more money in their budget as well.
