robin craig Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Interesting couple of pictures courtesy of Orsorio Luis by kind permission. It is suspected to be a trials vehicle. What can anyone add please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10FM68 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 There's this one floating around on the internet - can't credit the owner, I'm afraid, as I don't know who it is. Judging by the MTP uniforms, it isn't a very old picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillS Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 The photo posted by 10FM68 is of one of 14 ex IDF M113 mounted EXACTOR missile systems purchased or leased from the Israeli in 2007 for use in Afghanistan. More information can be found in this article: https://www.thinkdefence.co.uk/2022/11/exactor-spike-nlos/ . Given the VRNs visible on the M113s in sirhc's post above, I assume that they are from the same batch, but with their Exactor equipment removed.

Lynx22B Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Those carriers with THALES painted on them look like ex Canadian 113's. Note the Canadian marker light covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
