I think only 12 or 13 were ever built. They were used as recovery vehicles in the independent Anti Tank squadrons in the NO Army and was used for recovery of NM116 and M113 vehicles. If I remember it correct an AT Squadron had two platoons of NM116, one platoon with NM142 and one platoon with Leopard 1 tanks.
Some years ago I shot a walkaround of one of the remaining NM 130 vehicles and got it posted on Primeportal
