Which vehicles carried the Rhino IED device?
I am specifically interested in the Hum-V since the
Blast Models, BL35135K, set shows the front of
something tha looks like a Hum-V.
Thanks ..

Pretty much all wheeled vehicles carried them at one time or another. They were not vehicle-specific. You would be fine putting it on a HMMWV or any other wheeled vehicle.

Look here and you will see it on just about any and every thing.

A related question Gino, are they still in use or have they been phased out by other equipment?

What is the theme for your build? In Iraq the Rhino was used extensively but not the case in Afghanistan.

Just something to consider

Hi Dave,
I never have a theme for my builds. My aim is technical accuracy (to the best of my ability/references). One way
to explain it could be to say that my goal ís to build a
miniature museum of defence technology ;-)
