This tank is called, "The Badger" and as you can see it is quite small.
What do you think?

The first video says it is for law enforcement. It looks like it's built on a Bobcat chassis, or something similar.

I agree...I think this chassis was meant for either bomb disposal units or police recon..Before getting into the banking business, I was a police officer and vehicles similar were making their rounds in the seventies..

In the late seventies I saw prototypes, manned and unmanned..They were to counter the type of homegrown terrorism we witnessed in the sixties.
Since Molotovs are so cheap, I suspect the unmanned became much more cost efficient?
