At the height of invasion fears during the early days of WWII many of the Commonwealth countries took it upon themselves to produce expedient home-grown weapons to ward off invasion. The Brits had Blacker's Bombard, the Kiwis had the Charlton LMG, the Canadians the Huot LMG, and the Aussies the Rocket Launcher, Multiple, Mutton. The need never arose for the RLMM to be used operationally but during the war years Dingos weren't a problem and ne'er could be found a lonely Shepherd

Another false lead as the helmet is modern American not WW2 so maybe the wrong time period is to disguise this latest US weapon in the war on terror. Just think of the savings in cost of cold weather gear as the troops maning this equipment could cuddle it to keep warm. I guess too it may come in two versions. Rams for female troops and Ewes for male troops and engineers!
