I just chanced upon this article about a new HETT based gun truck. It's
locally made in Iraq by GIs.

S.C. soldier designs new gun truck
Instead of an M-16 rifle, Army Staff Sgt. James King is using his welder to
help U.S. troops fighting in Iraq.
King’s gun truck — recently unveiled at Camp Arifjan, where the 175th is
stationed in Kuwait — weighs more than 20 tons. The vehicle originally was
designed to haul a battle tank.
