Two or Four Sponson Turrets on a 40' Dumper Trailer , make up slightly for lack of Top Turrets . Combined with heavy Metal/ Composite Armour gives an incredibly tough target to defeat . My various Outhauler designs on Combat Garage & elsewhere , mounts 4x Twin HD/Ex VMG Sponsons Smartlinked in side pairs . Often they're also Smartlinked to Tractors Turret as well , if compatible .
Two or three of these Trailers in Convoy with minimal light Escorts , can fend off even well armed attacks & even organised ambushes .

( Originally had a single Sponson on each side , but CG allows four to be mounted . That may be pushing the 'only ten spaces for weaponry rule' for 40' Dumpers , but as those 8 Spaces of Turret Mounts equal 16 Turret Spaces , it seems to be legit ... )

Who would attack Dump Trailers you may ask ? Rival Haulage/Mining companies ; Rebel forces during our African Military Campaign a number of years ago & perhaps desperate/crazy salvage gangs with not much to loose & days to plan sneak attacks etc .
