    My favourite SP AT gun variant is twin GMS/H in a turret on a size 2
High Mobility vehicle. The models I use are a friend's and they are 6/8
wheel Piranha/s with hammerhead TOW launcher like M901. This allows two
shots, they can indirect fire and fire while in defilade with FO, they
can
fire after moving (turret), they have high strategic mobility, are low
cost,
and hard to hit (D10 signature). I usually use them in platoons of six
and
hide them behind hills.
    Basically, the AT gun concept has been invalidated by the missile as
the
missile is more versatile.
