Found this to be interesting...apparently the "cage" is there to defeat RPG's?

The first pic of the cage on the Stryker is actually to explode the enemy RPGs before they hit the vehicle. Just like the sandbags and cages in WW2. Its "field-expedient". I also noticed the Stryker had the CROW (?crew? remotely operated weapon) Can anyone provide some info on that?

Just think of me as that old, retired Colonel who gets paid 4x as much for the same job with half the authority and with the same people he worked with three months ago on the other side of the desk.
