not sure if it carried any guns it was desiged to literaly shove/pull vehicles out of the sea that had got bogged down,swamped or hit and shove beached landing craft/boats back out to sea, could drive in water up to 9ft deep

used from d-day up until the 60s when it was replaced by a ceturion barv i think it was only used by the uk
