Yeah, she's fairly beefy! I won two on ebay (missing the yellow missiles in the back) for $20.00. They go great as Combat Engineer Vehicles for Techno Vipers.

Just FYI....

During the 1991 Gulf War, some combat engineers were supporting a Tank Battalion that was tasked with attacking an entrenched network. The Iraqi's got holed up in bunkers connected by trenches, and the tanks couldn't get up close enough to engage the Iraqis without endangering the tank crews. The Iraqi's weren't putting up much resistance, but they weren't coming out of their bunkers, either! The tank crews were stymied....until a Corporal in the combat engineer got an idea and took an M-9 ACE (Armoured Combat Earthmover ....a big armoured bulldozer) and plowed over one of the bunkers burying 9 Iraqis alive! The other 50 or so immediately came out with there hands in the air!!!
