The turret is armed with a 20mm  Rheinmetall autocannon. The NM135 carried an anti-tank group, a machine-gun group, the deputy section leader, and the reserve vehicle commander — who took over when the section commander dismounted from the vehicle commander’s position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the section disembarked, the vehicle commander switched to the section leader role, and the vehicle could thus operate independently of the infantry section under command of the reserve vehicle commander. The distribution of the unit through the NM135 and M113 transport vehicles can vary from vehicle to vehicle, depending on the wishes of the troop commander.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Danish Panserinfanteri Deling (Armoured Infantry Platoon) was generally made up of three groups, each in turn was made up of around nine to eleven soldiers lead by a sergeant. Each group was armed with one M\/62 (MG3) machine-gun, one M\/79 (Carl Gustav) recoilless rifle, M\/72 LAWs and M\/75 (G-3) semi-automatic rifles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Panserinfanteri Deling had three crewed M113s armed with .50 cal machine-guns, one for each group, to transport the platoon to and from the battlefield. In defensive operations the M113s, with their heavy machines-guns, could act as machine-gun nests giving supporting defensive fire, and in offensive operations as a base of fire for the assaulting infantry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHIS PRODUCT CONTAINS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal Infantry Figures\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Formation Commander G3 rifle team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4x MG3 teams with M72 LAW anti-tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3x Carl Gustav anti-tank teams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3x Eryx anti-tank missile teams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e---\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese miniatures are supplied unassembled and unpainted\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Battlefront","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51783438205223,"sku":"BF-TNO702","price":27.63,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/8269\/0087\/files\/tno702_1.jpg?v=1785844545","url":"https:\/\/gamesbastion.com.au\/products\/world-war-iii-nordic-forces-m113-storm-group-1","provider":"Games Bastion","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
