Does anyone have information on the Stryker Motar carriers in use/used in A-stan?

What kind of information. What they looked like, how they were deployed, etc...?

yes that would be fine, I watched a training video in Kandahar but it showed no real detail.

If you're looking for a great reference on Strykers, Robert Skipper produces what is probably the best one around. Very detailed, reasonably priced and the pics were done with a modeler in mind, I have several of his sets and they're great.

Agreed.
Rob is known as 18Bravo on these boards. That might help to contact him.

Talking about the use of Strykers in Afghanistan, here's an interesting read :
