  Thats one of the most lethal stuff around today man. Absolutely nasty stuff in urban environments! It goes everywhere man! I think the only downside is that its lacking a little on the armour side of things but there is only so much a guy on a tricycle can take.

  Saw the video of a mortar mounted on a ATTC. The damn ATTC shook like hell when the mortar went off. I can imagine the Spyder turning turtle from the back blast sia!!

  ST Engg has advertised it which mean they have tested it to be viable.
  
  And I dun think there is any back blast, only recoil from the firing of mortar.
  
  The units that should operate it I believe is most likely the Guards.

  Hydraulic or pneumatic legs.
