The Belgian Army operated a fleet of M108 Howizters until the mid 1980's. Possible candidate? Same sort of era as the M113?

 

The M108 was the 105mm version of what is now the M109 Paladin 155mm SPG.

 

There was an M108 up for sale on Milweb a few years ago (plus one being broken up/candidate for gate Guardian)
