Mexican M8 HMC, recycled?
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

I wonder if the howitzer is still operational, or they merely recycled the turret...

It is a Mexican army DN-V Bufalo, turrets came from retired M-8 HMC, used as a close support vehicle.

Not that it helps much, but I suspect these photos were taken near this bird:
