Hi ya,
As you can see, I have been tinkering and stole a figure from the British AFV crew set to drive my G6. Needed a little modification but he is getting there.
The kit is big and the suspension, especially the exposed front gear is complex.
The outriggers are pretty involved as well.
When the prototypes were deployed to the SWA (Namibia) and Angolan border, they drove 2400km to get there by road. One of the 4 broke down, needed an new engine and gear box which were flown in and fitted after which it was redeployed and went into battle. They apparently destroyed four Mig 21's taxing up for take off on an Angolan air base that was targeted.
This is all online and in a book on South African armoured vehicles.
Anyway, enough of the history lesson, now I need to consider what to do to keep the model inline with it's initial deployment variant which will require ditching some later mods and additions.
Got some thinking to do.
Till later!
