Strikers have a similar disparity: M1126 ICV-Gl is 128. Add slats and it's 218. Can adding slats actually double or triple the cost of the vehicle in reality?

Anti HEAT protection goes from 4 to 35 in all aspects - including turret. Worth it IMHO, when the average RPG-7 in insurgent hands is ~30 HEAT ammo. Better than a Bradley, esp side and rear aspects.
164(#80)-114(#335)=50 points for the all-round suite of class 35 anti HEAT (at 70 base exp).
