Need more info!!!

Gun's? caliber? ROF? Ammo load?

Speed? Gears?

Damage model? (IE tougher than M16 but not as tough as panzer???)

Come on someone must know!

BTW, this has been a GREAT week to be an AH pilot! Bring it on HTC!

I belive it is the M8 Utility car Chass with a 40mm (not 100% sure) and the top gun is naturally an M2 50 cal heavy machine gun. If I'm correct it can go about 40 mph which means it can escort M3/M16 to airfields, plus it has the gun power to damage/disable FPs. But like I said I'm not 100% sure it's right

OK I think I found the information. (got it from CM lol) Anyway its the M8 Greyhound. It's main gun is a 37mm, with coax machine gun. (303 I think) Top gun is a M2 .50 Cal. It has 360 firing arc. The neat thing is, that it can go 55 mph, which will make it the fastest GV we have.

Actually, it does 60 mph on the highway.

JABO is getting more and more interesting. That's one fine looking ride you have there Superfly!!! I'll bet it is responsive too (For avoiding incoming). If it gets a flat will it still continue to move (albeit at a much lower speed)? Cool, none the less.

37mm ?

Another OSTY for low level flying targets

Airscrew · « **Reply #9 on:** August 17, 2001, 03:34:00 PM »

50mph cross country
60mph highway, or paved roads
25 mpg city
36 mpg Highway
Mileage may differ due to driving conditions/habits and presence of straffing aircraft.
Optional, Bose CD/DVD player and Leather interior.

I won't drive it unless they add heated seats and at least 2 cupholders!

(I'm guessing the 37mm is an AT weapon and can't be elevated high enough to shoot at aircraft??? )

37mm is kind of a weak AT weapon. Good be used as both tough, destryo m3.

A fast vehicle at last!
