Excellent, Steve! That's a lot of firepower!

Thanks Mark :salute::
Two neat little vehicles the Ontos and the Mule, the Mule I converted to carry the 106mm Recoiless rifle, you see them quite often in photos or Newsreel mounting them and I think they look pretty cool when doing so !
 
Same thought, a fair bit of fire power in this lot, a rude awakening if you’re on the other end. Robin.
 
A good scene Steve. Nice work on the mule conversion to carry the 106mm RCL

Cheers,
Grey
 
It's a good thing it's recoilless, otherwise I'd imagine firing a gun that size would tip that vehicle right over!

Yes especially when the Ontos "Six-Gun Suzie" joins in Robin !

Thanks and an easy one to do. An interesting little vehicle with lots of uses, with the Recoiless mounted it is probably more often seen in documentaries especially about Hue City.

Yes I think you're right Brendan, it would even if you could find a way to mount something else, of course you can mount a .50 M2 on a ground fire tripod and you see photos of that. though cargo carrying and casualty evacuation photos are more often seen.
 
Definitely some heavy fire power. I would not be surprised to see an M48A3 Battle Tank joining their efforts very soon.
