M-8 Greyhound TOW Carrier
Notes: This is basically the standard M-8 Greyhound with a TOW II missile launcher mounted on the turret in front of the commander's hatch. The Greyhounds had been previously upgraded by replacing the original gasoline engine with a diesel engine, and the addition of night vision equipment.
Twilight 2000 Notes: These vehicles were used only by Columbia at the start of the Twilight War, and they proved very effective against Peruvian, Venezuelan, and Panamanian armor. This was a result as much of the tactics used in their employment as the missile; the Columbian Army was trained in their use by US Special Forces before the Twilight War.
