"G.I.Joe's newest armored combat vehicle is based on the chassis of the venerable Wolverine, with all the benefits of a tried and tested system and the associated interchangeable parts. The Mongoose is a single crew operated light armored tank destroyer/assault gun. It fills a niche in the Joe arsenal for a specialized tank killer, optimized for defensive operations, and light enough to be slung under a Tomahawk helicopter.
The Mongoose is armed with the same 105mm cannon that the Mauler mounts in its turret. While it carries less ammunition for its gun than its larger cousin, and is limited to traversing its weapon by turning the entire vehicle, it also weighs far less and has a lower profile than the Mauler and also the Wolverine. The 105mm may not be powerful enough to guarantee kills on a modern MBT, but Cobra's ground forces tend to emphasize speed and affordability over armor, and the Mongoose should prove to be quite an effective snake hunter."

I love the fact that your Wolverine (and its bastard offspring seen here) can “button up” effectively.

Thanks, yes all of these have space for guys to sit under the hatches. They're lying back at quite an angle, but they're in there.
