The Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command's National Automotive Center unveiled SmarTruck II, a versatile, prototype, multi-purpose vehicle capable of both counter-terrorism support and domestic security, on January 7, 2003, at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The heavily armed SmarTruck II's cockpit and its fighting compartment - that would be the back-seat area in a civilian sport-ute - are jammed with high-tech systems. It carries a POINTER unmanned air vehicle, a SPIKE pinpoint laser-guided missile. It's built on a Chevrolet Silverado platform.
