Each of my gun trucks in 07 had a handful of these in Iraq. We used them primarily for escalation of force. We couldn't just put a burst through the windshield with the 240 anymore...
They came in quite handy.

I spent 20 years of pyroshoots trying to knock down a bird with those. I watched a Mark 127 that had been bouncing around the boats fly 50ft in the air..do a 180 and fly right back into us he-he. It stuck in the sand next to the bootcamper that launched it. You'd be surprised all the pyro famine's we had since the first Gulf War. We had to fight tooth and nail to get extra pyro for training days. Of course as a Coastie, I'd never saw a weapon mounted one before...cool!-WW
ps. When I was Survival PO I had drawers filled with old launchers...I hated RFO/StanTeam visitshe-he, glad I'm retired.
