thanks for the correction......salam

gov should send their HRT especially paskal..
More specific:
The 120mm 2R2M rifled mortar.
Here's a prototype in a M113 chassis, the ACV-S is a bit longer (6 roadwheels instead of 5) and will therefore have more space to take ammunition:
Malaysia tested the Bighorn mortar (I think it was 2004), but as aneep wrote, they will not buy the Bighorn, but the 2R2M. They are quite similar, but from different companies. Bighorn is from RUAG, Switzerland, the 2R2M is from TDA Armements, France.
Pictues from the 2004 Malaysia trials of the Bighorn:
BTW, ggk: Cool pictures of the Puma exercise![]()
