On the off chance anyone thought I was joking about Iran using std
articulated trucks as their missile (esp anti-ship missile) platform I
offer:

look at the pickie entitled: "Iran Revolutionary Guards firing
missiles from mobile launching pads".

Not just mobile but....a Std artic. OK so in these pickies the tractor unit
is a "mil green" but consider were the truck (& covered
trailer) to be painted up as "Faisal's logisitics & moving co.
ltd" .

OK so this is a simple Chinese CSS but one ponders more modern
Russo-Belarusso-Ukrainian pieces of kit similarly deployed from the
Pakistan border to the Iraqi one.

The Iranians are proving fairly adept at releasing kit pickies which
resonate with worried planners e.g. a while back when Israel was
threatening it was salvo's of S/MRBM's & now it's the USN (given the
local states absolute refusal to take part/have their territory used) we
see the above...
