It's basically an overgrown Italian version of the VBL, outsized to Fennek dimensions and used mostly like a M1114.

They remind me of the home made tanks of Britain and NZ (and possibly Australia) in early WW2, especially after the Fall of France

It's actually quite surprising what crops up in Libya from where exactly too. I've seen e.g. Romanian anti-aircraft guns that since their design over 40 years ago have only ever been exported to one country, in miniscule numbers - nope, not Libya. Liberia. Complete with handdrawn English-language instruction panels...

I have seen YouTube video of that or something of the like. When the damn thing fired, truck got burned down by the exhaust. Should have gotten Katyusha battery instead.

hmm not really it. It's a hefty gun on the top on a big blocky vehicle. I can't put my finger on it where I have seen that from.

Oh, I thought you mean the BMP hull on the back of the truck.  Hmm...now you've got me thinking that other thing looks familiar, too.

.....where have I seen that kind of vehicle before? It was a show or movie I think.

Were they not in the Chuck Norris flicks Delta Force?
