SAS used this to raid German airfields in Africa. Killed more enemy planes than the Allied Airforces in North Africa

Anything that results in more MA usage of Jeeps is a good thing.

yes, yes, yes, and did I mention yes! this would be a great addition to the game just put some more guns on that jeep and give it a new paint scheme, also Selino and I thought that a 75mm recoiless rifle would aslo be cool.

Tell you what would be fun- add a gunner option to it.  I think it would be a blast having someone race around while I'm gunning out the 6 o'clock pos. :aok

Imagine 4 person driver/gunner Jeep duels! :D

You can take a gunner in the Jeep just like any other GV or plane- you can swing the gun around so it blocks the driver's view, too. Good for a laugh if your driver is surly and intoxicated.

As has been covered in this thread, no jeep armed with a recoiless rifle was used in combat in WWII that anyone on these boards has (yet) been able to prove.  No combat, no dice.

I would love to be wrong, but I don't think I am.
