So cool! I love the "turret look" although the Stryker with the 105 mounted on it is bad looking as well!!

MORTARS!!!!!!
The topic I love. Those appear to look as if they could fire in "direct-fire" mode as well. Imagine both barrels pointed your way as you sit in a bunker looking out. Man I'd love to see these in action. Any info on their capabilities/range?

For technical data take a look at Patria's site (www.patria.fi):

The roll-out of the first two AMOS mortar vehicles took place on Tuesday 28th March 2006 at PWS facility in Vammala. The lower pic is from that occasion.
