Northrop Grumman on 12 October unveiled its Hellhound truck, meant to fulfill the US Army's potential light reconnaissance vehicle programme, at the Association of the US Army's annual conference in Washington, DC.

The 5,897 kg (6.5-ton) Hellhound can carry six (including the driver) and is able to generate 100 kVA of exportable power, which is particularly high for a vehicle of its size, with a 120 kW Jenoptik integrated starter generator.

The prototype mounts a 30 mm ATK M230LF cannon on a EOS Technologies R-400 remote weapon station, which can be internally stored, and it can be carried inside a Boeing CH-47 Chinook cargo helicopter.
 
They should have a mini-MLRS configuration with about 50 of the new Spike missiles in place of the squad of soldiers. You could have on call 2km range 360 degree precision attack.
 
Where's the Inferno Cannon?!


(Obligatory Warhammer 40K reference.)
 
That Hellhound chassis looks more like an up-sized ATV.

How wide is it? ..... compared with an Afghan goat track?
...... compared with an ATV?
... compared with a Hummer?
.... compared with an M-38 Jeep?
 
Can't find dimensions but it fits as internal cargo in a CH-47, so not very wide.

Not exactly what I would call a laser tank but interesting none the less.
