They look to me like the (excellent) 15mm kits from Old Glory

Excellent work – love that quad MG, affectionately called "The Meatchopper" by some of its users

Thanks @Frederic ! 😎
"Meatchopper" looks realistic…and really scary! 😱

It must have taken guts to drive these into any contested area. The first IED or a local with an RPG, who was prepared to break cover, and God help the crew. In a firefight they were very exposed., however heavy their calibres. At least you could get out quick I guess, if you could still move.

Still odd that, with the military industrial complex of the US, they resorted to a bunch of trucks, with paper thin armour covering, to protect their kids
