About the V-150 Commando - 4x4 Amphibious Armored Vehicle with 90mm Gun:
The M706 Commando is a 4x4 amphibious armored car built by the American firm Cadillac Gage. It fulfills a variety of support roles for military operations such as troop transport and ambulance service. It also has anti-tank capabilities. The M706 Commando saw active combat on many warfronts ranging from Vietnam to the Gulf War. The V-150 variant was deployed mainly by the Saudi Arabian National Guard.
V-150s were designed much like the earlier V-100s, but were equipped with modified suspension units. The hull was redesigned to carry heavier weapons systems, such as the Portuguese version which features a 90mm main gun.
