Identifying the launch vehicle?


Brown Moses has identified two videos of the UMLACA launch vehicle in the Mezzeh airbase.
 * Exported missile bases Cars - Mezze military airport – Moaweiah battalion, Dec 16, 2012
 * Vehicles carrying missile bases - Mezze military airport – Moaweiah battalion, Dec 16, 2012

The launch vehicle in these videos is a Mitsubishi Fuso Fe series light truck, possibly Fuso Fe 71.

The Liwa al-Islam launch vehicle is best seen in frame 31 of video 2. The truck is Hyundai HD series, possibly a Hyundai HD65. For a rear view of the cab see this, this, and this.

Compare these to the Mitsubishi cab here.

There is a green rectangle on the door. It could be decorative trim but the HD series seems to have a lightning figure there. The rectangular shape we see may just be an artifect of the image compression. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 06:48, 5 October 2013 (UTC)
