Scrim nets, scaffolding, railway ties, rails, spare tracks, sandbags, homemade ERA all come to mind.

If you can get the vehicle to the front in the first place.

NVM @Kirkhill clarified the GAU-19 ones.

That would certainly lay some hate on any dismounts/soft skins.

It also explains the two supernumeraries in the rear. Somebody is going to have to load all that 50 ammo.

Any opinions on rubber tracks?

Smoother ride? Quieter? Less vibration? Less weight? How easy are they to repair?

Less maintenance but unrepairable as they're a solid piece. Good for lightweight track like TLAVs. Less tear on infrastructure too.
