FMTV A2 variant

Just saw this pop up on my youtube subscriptions. Looks a bit odd with that hood sticking out. Skip to 7:07

Strange layout. They add the hood (and presumably move the engine forward), yet you can see that the air tanks have been moved up to an even larger cab-to-bed gap behind the cab. So what's underneath the cab, where all that empty space from the engine is? That thing is like 10' longer than a normal FMTV currently.

It almost looks like they took an existing chassis (other manufacturer) and scabbed on a fiberglass mock up of a hood. The wheels and all drive components were hidden by camo netting. Weird.

My guess is that the camo net is there because it's not even a truck on a chassis at all. There probably are no axles or tires under there.

It's a demo it probably doesn't even run.
