Sounds great but the gun and its mechanism is about 20 feet long and weighs quite a lot (not sure how much). The 30mm rounds are much bigger than .50 cal which means that you’ll either need more onboard storage or carry less ammo.

I can see this as a great addition to the Scout vehicle but they should leave the Deuce in place for close in social work. Just my $.02.

Caveat to my earlier post - I’m no expert but I worked with about 30 Apache pilots and crewmen for several years creating training for the Apache. Learned a lot from them but not everything.
