Purpose of these RHODESIAN ANTI-AMBUSH DEVICES was to help a convoy of vehicles to get out of the line of fire of the enemy, but the RHODESIAN WAR was not only driving away from the enemy: Tactics included that once convoy had escaped the initial AMBUSH, they would halt the vehicles study the bullet holes on the vehicle so figuring out from what direction they were fired upon.. and once the enemys supposed location was known a counter attack followed.. usually with good results.. for the RHODESIANS..

I do have pics of these devices but these are on paper..

Here is a picture of "The Persuader" or "The KQ (Kill Quik..)" mounted on two Kudu apc:s on the backround.. upwards pointing barrels.. five on each.. when these were dropped to horizontal they fired all barrels..

the .303 enfield grenade launcher is world war 2 vintage, they were originally fitted to british leased versions of the stuart or honey light tank, they were mounted at a 45 degree angles 2 per each side of the turret and were designed to fire smoke canisters, but could easily be adapted to use HE rounds, they were also wielded by the jawas in the first star wars film as ion blasters, hope that helps mate
