IRL

With the introduction of the American Jeep during WWII, the Brits decided that they needed their own version, thus creating the Land Rover series of four wheel drive off-road vehicles. Throughout the British Empire, the Land Rover became the dominant light utility vehicle for both civilians and military alike. This specific model used by Australians was nicknamed the “gunbuggy,” using the M40 Recoilless Rifle to fill the role of light anti-tank. Despite the Vietnam-era M40 being replaced by the BGM-71 TOW and other similar missile launchers in many countries, the M40 remains popular to this day as a cheaper alternative, as its HEAT ammunition was eventually upgraded to penetrate up to 700mm of armor.
