The Blackwater Grizzly APC, offered here today is a 15 ton armored infantry mobility was designed and built for the US Army
and its unique design would handle .50 caliber rounds and absorb and deflect blast from underneath to protect its cargo and humans. The Blackwater Company was commissioned by the US Government to produce these vehicles for modern day warfare and combat. But just like every war the US is involved
in, projections were off and the need for Blackwater to complete its order was obsolete and larger companies who have a strong influence on US Policies like Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics were awarded the contracts exceeding of $120 million dollars. If you’re a car guy, you can compare it the same story as the Tucker in the late 40’s. Big companies such as GM, Ford and Chrysler didn’t want the little guy to succeed and would do what it takes to wipe them out such as Lockheed and General Dynamics did.
But it did give the Blackwater Worldwide Company a chance to prove that they could build something as well or better than the big guys and only a handful of these wicked, fierce machines were built and never saw combat.
