This design came after 1967. The
first boats to use a flamethrower were Armored Troop Carriers outfitted
with an Army flamethrowing APC in the well deck. Later, dedicated
designs used the Monitor boat type and installed compressed air and
napalm tanks for flamethrowers mounted on both sides of the bow.
