Not sure this one was used by ISIS against aircraft, but it's based on a BVP-1 (Czech BMP-1) AMB-S armored ambulance, and was captured by the Kurds. I guess ISIS doesn't care too much about the Geneva Convention...

I've just found it on another website :

Incredible ! That would be the second time in the history of the universe that I have managed to beat the great H.P. to locating an image

You're being so polite... but then again, our true opinions would only be auto-censored anyway

The BMP in the last pic would make a nice project

Sometimes using euphemism is enough Hisham...

Here are more views of the second vehicle (or similar ones) :

Thanks for these pics, Henri-Pierre

Lots of great ideas for some not-too-difficult conversion projects
