Wondering if anyone out there in cyber land has seen a mil spec truck conversion?

The military has a big budget and they like to spend our hard earned tax dollar...after all if they spend it, they can then say they have no more money, because they spent it all and they need more...

Has anyone seen such a rig?

I could imagine something in either black, gray or green camo, with a ball turret machine gun on the top, gun ports out the sides...maybe some rocket/missile launchers for distance shots, flame throwers for close in work...???

No, can't say as I've seen or heard of such a beast, but THAT would be one cool rig, if it indeed exists.....
