Hi all,
here are two pictures of a Lance vehicle. My guess is this is the reload vehicle and not the launcher one.





Could anyone confirm my assumption and give the right M-type please (677 or 752)?
TIA

Olivier

I believe it could be a M752 Lance missile launcher vehicle. The launcher itself appears to be removable (looks to be a M740 launcher trailer with the wheels removed http://www.primeportal.net/artillery/hans-hermann_buhling/lance_missile_launcher/index.php?Page=1 ?) :



and I'm not sure the crane fitted to the M688 loader/transporter is removable as well...

EDIT : this very same vehicle is featured on Primeportal and captionned as M667... Pourquoi se casser la tête ?

http://www.primeportal.net/artillery/dieter_krause/m667/index.php?Page=1

My guess :

M667 + launcher = M752
M667 + crane = M688

Both variants appear in this video :

So I guess that the vehicle without any additional system is a M667.

Thanks for your input H.P.
