beatmasta Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Just saw this pretty weird technical in the news. Would be crazy addition to SF arsenal I think the turret can't be traversing but would be pretty cool if it was fully operational! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 That's designed by someone who isn't concerned about the vehicle surviving long enough to wreck the rear suspension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Springelkamp Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Isn't that turret on something parked behind the Jeep? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatmasta Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Isn't that turret on something parked behind the Jeep? No, it's not In the video you could see it moving along with the jeep. It seems that there's some iron bars welded on the rear deck and the turret planted there. Quite nice design! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 One gets the impression that "someone" (wink, nod) is helping the Libyans arm as best they can with the resources they have. I've also seen MIL helicopter multiple rocket pods strapped onto the roll bars of Toyota trucks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan8325 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Isn't the bmp main gun basically an spg-9? Somehow this seems harder to maneuver and aim than a pintle mounted spg and not a whole lot more protected! But it is funny! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
