Thacker) Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories Lines: 11 Approved: military@att.att.com From: Peter Brooks Part of your question has already been answered. I saw a TV show that showed some older photos of some Iraq arms exposition. One little item was a Saab-Scania truck that had been adapted to the erector/launcher role. (The soviet launcher is too small for the Iraqi variants, anyway.) It was reported that Iraq imported some 7000 of these trucks over the years..... Aparently, the conversion isn't all that difficult.
