Recognition notes
The Thumper Artillery Vehicle is a 60-ton wheeled combat vehicle fielded as a missile boat. A single Thumper sits at the front of the hull, backed by a pair of machine guns also mounted front, while two more machine guns cover the rear arc. The crew works behind standard armor, and the vehicle's internal combustion engine carries it at a cruising speed of 43 km/h with a top speed of 65. Brooks Incorporated builds the type at Irian.
