Plus, these groups in Syria and Iraq change allegiance on a dime (or a quarter or a dollar). Point being, you give a group TOWs and next month a splinter group is using those ATGMs against us. The MRAP is short gapped.

Unlike civilians we need to keep in mind the MRAP is an armored truck not an APC/IFV.
It's good at what it was designed for ... patrolling roads and villages dealing with lightly armed guerillas. It was never designed, nor intended to be a front-line APC.
It's useful for getting troops near the battle, just like the truck it is.
