Going through a bunch of photos I took last year I discovered this:

Looks like the rocket pod "Screamin' Mimi" mounted on landing craft. All that protective waterproof duck canvas. Tons of footage of these from the PTO.

Hi Robert,

its a dispenser for GATOR AT mines. AFAIK the mines are store in the tubes vertically and get ejected one by one. The Dispenser is mounted on various ground vehicles and helicopters. Possible applications: M200 tracked trailer, M548 and HEMTT M977.

I hardly believe that the Army would attach a WWII Navy device on a HEMTT LHS flatrack.

Seen on HEMTT. Not something that really interests me, but I know you like this sort of this H-H. Want the photos? Also got the MICLIC trailer, but photos of those abound on the net.




Edit: Of course you did it already! Just got your email.
