Oh boy, if you thought the Rhino from 40k was based on the M113 Armored Personnel Carrier, these things are the inspiration behind the Predator Tank.
M113 MRV
The M113 Medium Reconnaissance Vehicle. This means it is just like the M113 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle, but with the rather striking addition of a big fucking gun.

IRL
The MRV is the Australian version of the Scorpion, mounting the turret of the latter on top of a M113 chassis. The MRV was used in the medium reconnaissance role, for when opposition was expected but not against tanks, fielding them to cavalry units as opposed to infantry as was the case with lighter recon vehicles. Also, another modification that you won’t find on American M113s, was the inclusion of a built-in tea boiler. Smashing.
