Think you'll find that is an M240 , the US version of the FN MAG. It is in the vehicle mount mode with the two hand grips rather than a pistol grip

Here is a really good pic of the one I mean

No the D model. They are easy to convert though, using the Dragon Modern Machine Gun set. It has the Brit designation of L7 A2 GPMG in the set. You could also use one from AFV Club or Trumpeter's Strykers. Or from Dragon's Modern Marines set. There are a few more M240G or M240B sets out there as well.

To make it into a D model, cut off the buttstock and add the spade grips from an M60D or from a .50 ca.l. Then cut off the pistol grip as well and add a thin rod from the rear spade grips to where the pistol grip was. Voila, you now have an M240D.
