Not quite the same thing. This is a real 4x4 scout vehicle. The one
in Aliens was configured differently. Larger tires, longer body, left
hand driver position (vs the central one in this) and a cab forward
arrangement. Also the turret wasn't central, it was further back and
on a set of rails as it was a remote turret.
