Hi Gang,
a friend of mine send me pics of the Armed Forces Day in Torrance, Ca. On show was a MPCV Buffalo with a kind of cable reel on the manipulator arm. Could this be an A2 version?
I still look for a version to build my Varja kit into.
TIA

Hi all,
I spotted more mods:
1. The exhaust pipe was extented and bend
2. A new ladder wass attached to the rear of the truck
Could this be an A3?

Hi, here are 2 pics that I found in a Flick R album about this event :
So it is a Buffalo A2, vehicules are never the same, units are upgrading the trucks for theire own use
The tube along the arm, is for compressed air for blasting small stones or dust upon an IED too see it better

Hi Dimitar and Pascal,
thanks for the informations. It looks like the Buffalo might be a little harder to convert than I thought. So I will keep it in mind for later.
