Its not a force field. Its a missle defense system for vehicles called Trophy. It basically detects an incoming threat and then disburses fragments in the direction of the threat. Some might confuse it as being a force field in that it protects the entire vehicle by sensing and reacting to threats. That and the fact that all the news clips show a bubble around it.

Yea I was briefed on it a while back. Force field sounds cooler though.. and you can see that RPGs and TOWs are basically stopped in their tracks.

Yeah force field sounds much cooler than Trophy.

And this is a great thing to see. RPGs & IEDs are a big threat right now.
