Remote weapons station Arrow 12, mounts on any vehicle. View attachment 554877
Would work good on any light armoured vehicle like the LAVA project which modp reports stated , good for policing and coin in in balochistan etc, Also should one day ops be required inside afg, this can provide a convoy with good firepower ( from a armoured vehicle) as no troops would need to dismount from it
