Yes, we are a "special" bunch, we gunners. I am sure there are those who found working with the armoured and the infantry just as distasteful. Back on subject, I spent the best of seven years ('75-'82) in and about the gunner end of the K lines and do not recall seeing said vehicle - not to say it wasn't hidden from view. I do recall seeing at least two Cymbeline radars parked outside of K-13, and two radar control vans. I wasn't into the "old" kit at that particular stage of my life, so the 114 may have escaped my notice.
However, I am sure that our very own Gunner would have had his mitts all over it had he seen it. I await his reply.
