Default RE: Ever seen an Ontos?

Ontos was a cute little vehicle and pretty popular when it first came out. Only saw a half dozen and none moving, but they were supposed to be pretty fast. Big drawback was the guns.....could only use them in an ambush situation then get the hell out fast. Small enough where you could hide it anywhere, and once you fired, the whole world knew where you were...and you only carried enough ammo for 2 reloads. Army never used them outside of a couple units for training but the Marines used a few.
