Armor plating a foot thick for Force Protection Cougars?

Color me skeptical. One inch thick plates would be plenty heavy. Two inch thick plates would really be something. Eleven and three-quarter inches? That has the ring of a mistake, though both The Marine Corps Times and DefenseNews.com are reporting the same thing.

Here's betting that the real number is one and three quarters inches, though it is practically inconceivable that both publications would allow a mistake like that to pass.

You keep using that word ...
