Nope.  Generationally, the previous guess was closer.

You've got it.  A development from the AMX-30B2, the AMX-32 was intended for the export market.  It was armed with a 105 mm cannon, coax 20 mm & in the commander's cupola there was a 7.62 mm MG.  The AMX-40 (that I showed earlier) was another system developed for the export market.  Built on a bigger chassis, it had a turret which resembled the AMX-32 but sported a 120 mm main gun.
 
A Sherman chassis, but the missile system is going to take me a little longer, although it looks familiar........the first thing to pop into my mind was Sparrow, but I am no missile expert.......time to look in the books.  ;D

Gepanzerte Munitionsschlepper (VK302)

As early as September of 1937, orders were made to develop fully-tracked armored ammunition carrier. Prototype of VK302 armored ammunition carrier (Sonderschlepper BIII) was produced in 1940. At first, 20 vehicles were ordered followed by 100 vehicles but only 28 were produced from October of 1941 to January of 1942 by Borgward.

Strange one, this...

Landsverk L60 Tank built by Sweden and exported to among others, General Rafael Trujillo in the Dominican Republic. This picture was taken in 1965 in the Dominican Republic when the USMC landed to assist in the evacuation of Americans and other foreign nationals.

"The Landsverk L60 light tank was a product of German design and Swedish manufacture. It was produced between the two world wars and when compared to its contemporaries (the British 6-ton Vickers and the French Renault F17 for example) it was more modern. Operated by Sweden for more than twenty years the vehicles were also sold to and used by Hungary and Finland in World War Two combat. When Sweden retired its 160-odd inventory of the L60s in 1957, it made the best twenty-five for sale to the Dominican Republic."
