If you are going for the Syrian tree, they also operated The Hummel Sd.Kfz. 165 mounted with an Italian Breda 12.7mm SAFAT machine gun.

I believe the Syrian elements are from spain selling a few panzer ivs to them, I dont believe spain ever operated the hummel or sold them to Syria, so it wouldn’t make to much sense.

Ya np, its a bit difficult to find anything for rank ii-iii thats at least a little original
That’s funny.
Portuguese Willys MB with Matra Type 361 launcher holding 36 SNEB rockets.
Unfortunately, I read that the launcher could not rotate horizontally, requiring turning of the jeep to aim on that plane.

I wonder if we will see anything interesting at DEFEA 2025? It runs May 6-8th so certainly worth keeping tabs on.
As the exhibition only started today, photos are still relatively scarce, but I have seen a few things, namely this M113A1 upgraded with the Samson turret by Rafael. We have already seen this vehicle undergoing tests around a month ago, so it’s not exactly new, but still worth mentioning.
The same turret was also mounted on an armored car of sorts, although this is not the M1114GR that was seen trialing alongside the M113.
