I would like to know the name of this armor or mobile armor or whatever it's called, so I can model it. Also, if there are any more pics they would like to share with me I would be grateful. Thank you.

Hi!
It's small Turkish-made 70mm rocket launcher which has 40 rocket-tubes.
It can be moved very small vehicle etc. Land Rover or similar.
It is named as: MAKSAM RA-7040
Effective range is ~7500m
Actually it is rocket louncher on a trailer or a van back-stage,
or almost in wheelbarrow. :)
According to my unconfirmed info they have 24 pcs in use.
Couple of pics:

It is probably small one, but still I want to lay longer distace than 7500m when couple of those little demons are shooting to my direction.... :D
