I wonder if the M1 Abrams is going to become another M4 Sherman amongst the model manufacturers? ???

Very nice! The M8 is definitely on my want list! :-*

I read something within the past year or so that suggested the M8 was once again being considered for the light tank uh, mobile gun system role. I’m not betting on that but I guess you never know.

BAE Systems has offered a modernised version of the M8 for the US Army Mobile Protected Firepower infantry brigade light tank requirement.

Gonna need at least two of these, one OOB and one to modify as I see fit.
