I just happened to come across this and thought it was pretty cool so I thought I would share.


Syrian homemade improvised armored vehicles.


Homemade armored vehicle “Sham 1″.




Another “Sham 2″ improvised armored vehicle.




Inside the “Sham 2″, a Syrian rebel uses a video-game controller to activate the machine gun mounted outside the vehicle.




Another look at the outside of that same “Sham 2″ showing a good look at the camera and gun being controlled from the inside.




Here is a video of Sham 2 that I found on YouTube.

Thanks for looking,
Randy

You're welcome Brent. I thought it was pretty cool. They could make for a couple of cool scratch-build projects.

Thanks,
Randy

Thanks for posting Randy.

And... it's nice to "hear" from you. You still at the same phone number? Either way, I'd like to call you and chat.
