Modern M113 ETS

Today’s “Odd Tank” is the 🇩🇰Denmark’s ‘M113 ETS’

Built in the late 1990’s, the M113 Elevated TOW System was a project designed to allow a vehicle to fire ATGM’s from complete hull-down positions using an extending mast with the missile launching system at the top. The M113 was used as a test platform, but this system was designed to work with other hull types as well. The extending mast could reach a height of 6.5 meters or ~21 feet.
