Default Naval Weapons on Army Trucks

Behold, a UAF Kamaz six-by-six truck with a ex-navy over-under 25mm 22M-3 turret on its bed.

Post-exchange, with many surviving naval vessels laid up in port for lack of fuel and/or spare parts, it stands to reason that useful weapon systems would be stripped and put to use by ground forces. We've already seen the same model gun turret mounted on an MTLB armored tractor by Russian forces (see the Franken-AFVs thread for pics and article links). I reckon something like this naval guns-on-an-army-truck ad hoc system wouldn't be particularly unusual in the T2kU. It would certainly make for an interesting encounter.
