Note
The tower is dvouosobová (commander and loader), in older models, the AMS was operated manually. After the north american company Delco Defence ceased to exist, took over the technical documentation at General Dynamics Land Systems (GDLS) and has developed a tower AMS II, which is equipped with electro-hydraulic controls, fire control system, electronics for determining the GPS coordinates and a combined viewing and targeting system. The length of the tower without a weapon 2200 mm with a mine-thrower up to 4660 mm. The rate of fire long-term 8 rounds/min. and short term up to 12 rounds/min. Range of the mortars is given from 800 to 12000 m depending on the ammunition.

Saudskoarabské self-propelled mortars
Around the year 1995, they have supplied the company Delco and the Royal Ordnance to Saudi Arabia 73 towers with a mine-thrower, where they were mounted by Abdullah Al-Faris Heavy Industries Company, to the purchased of armored vehicles LAV-M (S). Currently serves mortar spg will take at saudskoarabské guard (SANG).

USMC
U.s. marines tried in 1997, one vehicle equipped with mortar towers.

The australian project ASLAV-M
In 1998, lent the company Delco and Royal Ordnance in Australia army test one "kamuflovaný" corporate piece with the inscription: Armor-Dillo (armadillo). Perhaps because, after the internet began to circulate rumors that a gun was included in the loadout. The local enthusiasts a longer period of time it took before they realized that the so-called ASLAV-M was not included in the loadout.
