The Oshkosh M1240 M-ATV is a MRAP-type vehicle currently in use with the US armed forces and has seen deployment in warzones as such as Afghanistan and Syria. Facing the IED-threat that prompted the creation of the MRAPs like the M-ATV, the US also adopted a mineroller-system for light vehicles to prematurely detonate IEDs. The SPARK (Self Protection Adaptive Roller Kit) is fitted to vehicles ranging from Humvees to MRAPs and trucks.
As I have found a 3d-print file for a SPARK-kit, I decided to present it being mounted on the M-ATV from Galaxy Hobby. I will put everything on a little "glorified display-stand" aka vignette with a few figures.
