    >The [Hornet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malkara_(missile)) was developed in the 1950s to provide British and Australian airborne units with an air-dropped long-range anti-tank capability. Based on the British Army’s FV1611 Humber “Pig” one-ton four-wheel drive armoured truck, it carried two Malkara, missiles on a retractable boom at the rear, as well as two reloads. It could be transported by air in a Blackburn Beverley and air-dropped on a cluster of 6 special parachutes.

  2. I can’t tell is this is a G.I. Joe or Cobra vehicle. πŸ™‚

    Like a very compact mil-spec Lamborghini LM002… from decades earlier.

    Needs a remote operated machine gun turret on the hood.
