Not much has been done to the original Avenger since it came out in the 80’s, which was basically an eight stinger missile system mounted on a Humvee.

However, if Boeing gets their way, the new Avenger will have its weapons outfitted on an Oshkosh ATV that include, surface-to-air missiles, a Bushmaster chain gun, a laser, another secondary gun and what looks to be a T-shirt launcher.

The roid-monster has everything but the kitchen sink….oh never mind it has one of those to.
