MIG 21 Lancer

Correct however Romania contracted Israel's Elbit to modernize 110 of the MiG-21s to Lancer standard giving them new avionics, a more modern radar and the ability to drop precision-guided munitions.

You are right though they remain Lancers

What weapon system is this? looks awesome

The MLI-84 is a tracked Romanian armoured personnel carrier currently in service with the Romanian Land Forces. It was derived from the chassis of the Soviet BMP-1
MLI-84M – MLI-84 modernization fitted with a new Israeli OWS-25R overhead mount turret armed with 25 mm Oerlikon KBA autocannon and two 9S415 ATGM launchers. It is also equipped with two banks of four smoke grenade launchers. Because mounting of the new turret increased the weight of the vehicle to 17.6 tonnes, a new more powerful engine had to be fitted. The new engine is the Caterpillar C9 engine developing 396 hp (295 kW) which is the same engine as the one found in recently acquired MOWAG Piranha III IFVs by the Romanian Land Forces. However the vehicle lost its ability to travel across water with little preparation and has to be specially prepared before entering water.
