Already replaced with G-Wagons, which are not invulnerable either and
can't navigate many narrow streets in Afghanistan.

Still the best cost effective tactical transport available. Operated

This was never a traditional peace keeping mission, Bill Graham as
Defence Minister and the CDS both said so when this deployment
started. 

There has not been any 'mission creep', it's just the enemy is

to make the country ungovernable and hope NATO will go home so they
can pick up the pieces.
