M113A2 REV in Iraq

[nate_o23]

Here are some pics of the REV we have. It is used as a riot control vehicle here at the detainee prison at Camp Cropper. Basicly it is an old M113a2 that some company in Canada bought and converted into this then sold back to Uncle Sam.

Claymores for riot control? Plastic balls?

Pretty interesting. Would be great for riot control use, I presume. Reminds me of the M113s in Vietnam with the firing ports in the sides, but those were a lot more lethal....

????? "Less than lethel" WTH Kinder gentler is PC nonsense

Rule 1. Do not emplace claymore unless you're prepared to fire, do not fire unless you intend to kill.

It's in the same vein as other less than lethal methods. My personal favorite is the Coil from a Centurion tank wired into a ferret on the hull for the high tension side. Run a chain and an insulated lead to the coil and when someone grabs ahold of the vehicle to climb on, they get a bit of a shock. 24 volts and a coil for a tank....if that's a bit of a shock..
