You are off.Steel Horse said:Wow, if I had to throw out a guess I would say it is a mine layer of some sort. Sure I am well off base on that.
Maybe tomorrow if we are still guessing.Steel Horse said:Any larger photos?

It is not, but expected to see this answer suggested.GUNS said:Looks like a Husky mine and IED detector
Souvim 2 is composed of two vehicles and three trailers. The first
vehicle (VDM) carries the stand-off mine decoy support frame, including
DEDALE magnetic decoy antennas. The VDM is immune to pressure mines
thanks to its specially designed low-pressure tires which do not detonate
mines. It tows a heavy trailer, which detonates mines and secures and marks
the path for the second vehicle. The second vehicle (VTR) follows the lane
secured and marked by the VDM, and tows two additional trailers, which
detonate pressure mines deployed on the track up to a width of 3.9 metres.
The system can clear 150 km of roads in a day. It is particularly suitable for
clearance of main supply routes. French armies have understood the
usefulness of such as system, at a time when many communication routes
are booby-trapped by IEDs, and, as with the Dedale, have selected the
system for 2007.
Yes. http://www.defense-update.com/products/s/souvim.htmSteel Horse said:French Souvim-2, more particularly, the VDM vehicle.
The MXT-MVA is an all-terrain, armored wheeled vehicle platform designed to provide a new level of ballistics and blast protection on the battlefield and against the new threat of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).
