They still did not build chariots out of iron. What the Hittites did was add a third soldier to the chariot but even that would have added weight and thus made them slower.
From an Egyptian relief on Kadesh:

The Egyptians had a two man chariot with an archer shooting a composite bow. I recall a Nova special where the technique was demonstrated. Impressive. Like a fighter strafing ground troops.
In any event, the two fought each other to a draw at Kadesh. One also had to pick ones ground carefully to employ chariots.
You do understand I won't be holding my breath waiting for you. "Moses" is bullshit, too.

Don't worry, truth is coming, and God willing, evidence real evidence is coming fast.
