The French come to the rescue......

How would you like to attack in a Armor wedge with a bunch of these?

Armed with a 75mm recoiless rifle......

"More impressively, the recoilless rifle could be fired effectively on the move by the best of the gun crews. Total cost? About $500 for the scooter and the recoilless rifle was war surplus. Were they successful military machines? Well, the French Army deployed about 800 armed scooters in wars conducted in both Algeria and Indochina."
