The Joes' weapons supplier, has done it again! After directing the Joe HQ upgrade, Greybeard (my own custom Joeverse weapons supplier) presents for your consideration the following:

Jungle Assault Command Center ("JACC")

Based on the previous Rhino assault vehicle, the JACC slims down to offer a faster, sleeker design.

The helicopter launch has been scrubbed in lieu of greater personnel and cargo space. In this case, the JACC is carrying the ninja bike:

(note: back roof not installed for access/playability purposes)

Improvements from the scrubbed Mobile Pit prototype were incorporated into this design, as demonstrated by Cover Girl and Mayday. Visibility of the driver and co-pilot have been improved by 75%
Image

Radar-guided missiles, a twin-autogun (with manual option as shown by Dusty), and radar tracking emplacements help to bulk the JACC's armaments.

Thank you for your attention. End of Briefing.

lol... I have an advanced engineering degree, but no rolling thunder


I think taking pics outside helps too... I need to do that more often.

Thanks for the look!

The rear of the thing needs a cover. It can be removable but you can't have the rear troops open to enemy attacks like mortars and missiles or even elevated sniper fire. Do that you have a clear cut winner.

Excellent I'll take two, one for the Jungle and one retrofitted for the Arctic or the dessert. Thank you.

You got me thinking on how to do it. Here's what I came up with:

I made it from one of those Dollar store sci-fi roleplay shields I saw last Halloween.
Cut it to fit, then hotglued it to the remnants of the hinges I had leftover. It flips back
beautifully, and I like the detail on the "vent" and such. I wish the edges could be
cleaner, but I figure it's not bad for a Dollar Store find.

Wow - that's perfect. I'm gonna have to start going to the Dollar Store now....

Awesome job!

Perfect. I would never have thought to use a play shield, but dam if those details don't fit right in with the rest of the vehicle. Having it flip back like a ramp is even sweeter. Great job on adding that to you're already kick ass custom.
