Lightweight vehicles are flexible tools in the hands of the military

Jeeps were effective tools in the hands of SAS

Lightweight vehicles can be very deadly and during the Second World war the jeeps very effective tools in the hands of SAS, when the British military attacked against the airfields, what were controlled by German Africa Corps in North Africa. The SAS was destroyed more aircraft in that operational area than RAF and rest of the Montgomery troops. The tactics were simple, the Jeep unit was driven through the airbase using Lewis and Vickers machine guns and mortars against the planes, what were parked in that area.

During the Six Days war, Israeli military equipped their jeeps with heavy bazookas, which meant for defensive weapons against enemy tanks. In the moderns warfare the lightweight vehicles have been equipped with various missiles and other weapon systems like Stinger- and Chaparral systems, grenade launchers and 50 caliber Gatling guns, what is effective against the low flying aircraft and drones. Also, lightweight drones can launch the collapsible racks, which are installed on that vehicle. Also, the batteries of the various systems can be loaded from those vehicles.  The idea of lightweight vehicles is, that they can easily be transported to operational areas and they can be dropped by using parachutes.


Moderns lightweight vehicles can be heavily armed and very flexible


Some of those Humvee's are equipped with microwave- or laser-based minesweeping systems, which can also be used against drones and attacking aircraft. Those systems can also damage heavy tanks because they are heating the armor. The military engineers have got an idea, that the military Humvee, what carries TOW missiles might get more effect if the missiles would load to the Roller-Coaster, what is equipped with robot hand, what can put the missile in tube automatically when the vehicle is on the run. There is also created ideas of semi-and full automatized robot versions of this land vehicle.

One of the most effective ideas is to install the automatized gun tower to that vehicle, that the shooter can sit on the chair while operation. But the full operating robot versions have been tested, and some of those versions have been remotely controlled ground vehicles, and others have been fully automatized robots, what are acting like predator-drones, but those drones are moving on the ground. Those vehicles can be equipped with the high-explosive, and they can be used as the advanced versions of the car bombs, and actually, those vehicles can be dropped to the enemy base, and they just can drive inside aircraft hangars, and explode themselves automatically or those detonators can be used by remote operator, who watches the situation by using camera.
