About the SLAM, yeah I think it was advertised as an Air-Defense machine. But it's not that big of a difference - in the Army, there are 2 types of Artillery: Field Artillery (FA), and Air Defense Artillery (ADA). It doesn't seem so implausible that the Joes, being a very small, specialized unit, would need to combine those branches into one vehicle like the SLAM.
