Ran across this picture from defense industry daily. It is a canadian M113 with a UGWS similar to the one on the AAVP7A1 and M1117 (I think). There are also some other antennas added. I guess the picture was taken in Afghanistan.

Ahah just saw the review by Jason of the Azimut kit. Not such a new vehicle. New to me at least. Looks cool though.

Actually the turrets are off of the old Grizzly 6 wheeled LAVs we had. Its a Cadillac Gage turret with a .50 cal and a .7.62mm in it.

There are some TLAV's that have RWS's on them as well.

The image is originally from the Canadian Forces Combat Camera site.....M113A3 TLAV....the photo was taken back in May 2007.
