Looks like the first one was a ballistic missle launcher.
2nd one, if I'm not mistaken, that's the engine compartment of the Abrams
3rd, must have bagged a loot :-) :-) :-)
4th, looks like an improvised bunker :-)

I'm no expert but I think that the vehicle on the first picture is a M 667 Lance Tactical Nuclear Missile Carrier based on a M 548 chassis. The last Lance missiles were phased out in 1992. After being demilitarized, some missiles were set aside for use as targets.
Talking about the second picture, I think that this is what happens when you park your tank in the wrong district
Thanks for sharing

Hi
From the colour scheme it looks to be an Israeli lance launcher, i believe they used these in a non nuclear form.
Like the pic of the humvee guntruck with the steel box in the back
cheers

Yes, Lance could be used tactically and it was SUPPOSED to have been supplied to Isreal only as a tactical missile, not a nuclear capable system. Remember, Isreal has never OFFICIALLY announced it has nukes....
However, if the Lance is in Iraq, how did it get there?

These are created from worn out tank hulls.As you can see,an enlisted person fits well in the rear bunk area.As shown,this unit is capable of providing armored housing,for up to 8 enlisted personnel.
The Officer version,can house 3 officers.
