Near as I can tell, it's an APC used to quell prison riots or something? not sure though, little info out there.
Maybe they had to use the claymores because no one would issue them a crew served for the TC's hatch . . .

I wonder if they tested the claymore rigs there -- I was always told that a sand bag backing was preferred to prevent damage to the backing armor on a 113. I'd also think a test shot would blow their brackets to smithereens.
