An easier one...but name the army, vehicle and variant:

 

[Nug]

Fox NBC Recce vehicle. In U.S. service.

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Yup... M93A1, to give it its Yank name.

 

[Franko]

Top one was a BRM-1K

Bottom was a PRP-4 with Tall Mike radar for Arty recce.

The other one was a Fuchs....German engineering at it's best.

[Franko]

Here's one.....

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Finnish XA-185/203 (probably a 203 without armament)

 

[Franko]

Dutch Patria APC   

Both countries bought them....just different names

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Heh...

OK...one very obscure:

 

[Franko]

Hmmm....looks French....gimmie a second.

Regards

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

I'm being mean  >

 

[Franko]

I give up....It looks like a French 4X4 that the FFL use in Afghanistan up armoured.

I'm stumped.

[nsmedicman]

I give up.....

 

[WogCpl]

It almost looks like some kind of armoured 40's Dodge power wagon (M-37, if i recall)

 

[Teddy Ruxpin]

Oooh, so close!

It's a Cashuat, a vehicle produced in El Salvador in the 80s (still in service) in conjunction with the US Army's Tank Automotive Command.  The vehicle was indeed in series production, but was based on the old US Army M37B1 truck.  The US designed the vehicle itself, cut the armour and then shipped it for assembly in El Salvador... Apparently, there're still 40 or so kicking around that part of the world.

I'll admit I'm impressed, FatwagCpl...

Had to add the link, love the night vision on this thing

 

[Franko]

Hmmm....try this one.

 

[nsmedicman]

Panhard AML?

 

[Franko]

Hmmmm....any other guesses?

Regards

 

[WogCpl]

I think he's right,  AML 90

A couple of points and a question,
1 That boxy thing on the Aussy. Leo was a low light TV camera and we did have them on ours at
least in 4CMBG.
2 The Conquorer had a 120 gun.
The Isrealis are using tank chassis without a turret and 3 or 4 MGs mounted that looks suspiciuosly like
a Cent. does anyone know more?.
