The Technical is a unit used by rebel groups and poor nations as a simple combat vehicle. Easy to design take one gun of your liking and strap it to the box of a regular truck, instantly you have a combat unit and small troop mover. Or so I understand it but if anyone has more info please post it thanks.

It's unfortunate, but Nugent is still alive.
Don't get the idea that I like him...I hate the gun-toting cretin.

And Nitro's cover version of "Cat Scratch Fever" was better than the original!
 
i was going to post more about "ted nugget," but this isn,t the post to do so in.

god rest his sole.
 
Here's a site with a bunch of pics of real life technicals in Somalia. I was a little surprised at the variety. From an AA gun mounted on the back of a massive Pegaso truck to a huge 106mm recoiless plopped on top of a chop top Land Cruiser.

I have some pics from Somolia you might also find interesting.
I'll try to scan them tonight, or tomorow.

Technical is a Somoli term for any vehicle with a heavy weapon mounted on it. It wouldnt apply to other countries.

Nice work Hunter. :goodjob:
 
If only the somalians were white and lived in the south, then those vehicles would be used in the Redneck Army in the Confederate States of America
