Yes indeed! (to the 90MM recoiless rifle). Would have been of great benefit in Afghanistan. Are you familiar with the ONTOS? A very nasty looking thing the USMC used in VN.

The ONTOS did have six 90MM recoiless rifles, they're manually loaded and don't have near the rate of fire that a battery of M2s would put out. When reloading, the crew is pretty well exposed to side and rear fire.
