the cannon's - Gun's weapon cart


the original helicopter when equipped for mine sweeping has a sweeping sledge running on rails mounted on the celing of the cargo bay..
I have replaced this sweeper sledge with a cannon-gun weapons sledge..
the sledge has 2 20mm anti tanks cannons and a mk19 granate launcer mounted..
the weapons is operated by a gunner placed in a cabin on the back of the sledge..
