Interesting article on Mowag in Irish Service. Plenty of links at end of article for Mowags in use in other Armies

It seems to have forgotten completely about the MRV thinking the RWS with AGL is a different version to the RWS with 50 cal. Apparently we are using 6 versions in total now. APC, Command, Ambulance, Recovery, CRV and MRV. We should be close to seeing all APCs converted from turret to RWS by now. Passed 2 in traffic yesterday. Apparently out on a driving course, but caused the local fash to go nuts on bookface saying the army was about to take over the garda stations due to covid....

Never heard of them!

If one is on twitter, posts like that one are a great opportunity to exercise your blocking muscles. Strangely those who think Covid-19 is a hoax are also anti vax, racist, pro trump, anti EU and "pro life".
Many also have an Aunt Aoife that they all hate, for some reason.

Not sure if these are Coming back from UNIFIL, or heading out to be Upgraded.

They returned from Lebanon.

If they are departing they're heading for Vlissingen in Holland, and from there ?

That ship does a weekly run from the med/Italy. More likely they are coming back from UNIFIL.
