#7  Of course if you put it in a Ford, you're talking static defense, not mobile...

#6  Will it fit on an F350?

Most F350s have the 5th wheel setup so you're good, Skid.

#2  2. What is the VAMPIRE
The Vehicle-Agnostic Modular Palletized ISR Rocket Equipment or VAMPIRE is designed by L3 Harris, a US defence contractor known for their radios, EO Tech sights, and a multitude of technological innovations. The VAMPIRE is a compact and palletized rocket launching platform. Designed to be mounted on any flat surface, the VAMPIRE can convert an average pickup truck into rocket launching technical. There are three main components to the system: The enhanced optical targeting system, etc.
