This is the launch vehicle (M752) of the Lance Tactical Nuclear Missile Launch System.
The M667 was seen as a shoot and scoot kind of missle launch system (also capable of handling missiles with a nuclear warhead).
Shoot and scoot means the system is highly mobile and capable of quickly launching a missle followed by a rapid re-deployment at a different location.
More information here and scroll down. A quote from the above:
A Lance Battalion had 5 Batteries. 1 HQ, and 1 Service Battery that held the re-supply of missiles, and 3 firing batteries. Same concept as an Infantry Company/Battalion. Each battery had 2 launchers, and 2 Assembly and transport vehicles (same frame, but with the crane.) The A&T platoon had 5 extended wheel base 5 ton vehicles, and would store up to 22 missile bodies, and warheads.
