The problem is that the VAMP is the size of a full sized pick up truck, maybe even a midsized pick up. In reality a pick up might tow the Mountain Howitzer.
The military, at least back in the mid 90s, introduced a smaller howitzer and had to create a specially modified HMMWV to haul it.
The HAL and MMS? Forget it, the Whirlwind would be pushing it. In all honesty, a real HAL would probably require a heavy haul tractor trailer. Not thinking in terms of size, but weight. If a HAL is either a chemical LASER or an electric LASER, both are a bit on the wieghty side.
Yes, I know these vehicles are from a fantasy world, but I like having some element of reality in my Joe-verse.
The APC would have greatly benifited from a tow hook. Maybe I can sacrifice a hook from one of my Stingers...

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.
