Like what?

-S

Exactly-

We aren't exactly talking about the pilot of a mig fighter defecting and landing at a foreign airfield or something here. We are talking about a small and very low tech vehicle in military terms.

You can bet that the radio equipment typically found in such vehicles was not "permanently" mounted in said vehicles, and would have most certainly been removed and accompanied the parent units home when they left the country.

We are out a not inconsequential investment in the vehicles, but nothing more serious than that.
