That's a totally true statement and it can also be said that it will work.
The problem as always is in the details -- combat use of vehicles of any type pose maintenance and tactical use issues that normally dismounted troops have difficulty with. Conversely, mounted folks in the dismounted role have tactical problems and logistic issues. If you really want to have fun, put a Mech unit in Choppers for an air assault; seen that -- it's hilarious...
So, I guess the ol' bottom line is, yeah you can do that -- but should you?
Which goes back to Steve's and every Military School's 'depends on the situation...'
