Aero-space / It's a Mustang, but not as we know it

After having a couple of projects ruined by crappy Academy decals, the 'Red Tail' P-51C that they came from was left on the shelf. No more. First coat of primer is on, combat role identified, decals easily sourced from a totally different aircraft in the stash. Note that I used the Malcolm Hood that was an extra part in the kit.

Stay tuned...

Land / Wiesel Armoured Weapons Carrier (AWC) aka Waffenträger Wiesel

« Last post by Jeffry Fontaine on Yesterday at 04:41:23 AM »

About time to add this vehicle family to the "Ideas and Inspriations" forum.

First off, here is the link to the Wikipedia page on the Wiesel Armoured Weapons Carrier

What spurred this new entry? Well, I was watching a video at YouTube about the Wiesel and was surprised to see a rather unusual Wiesel that was fitted with what looked like a Cadilllac-Gage machine gun turret that looked a bit out of place on this vehicle that in most cases is armed with either a 20mm cannon or the TOW ATGM system. Attached image is a screen capture from that video.

Lest we forget, there was a topic created quite some time ago specifically titled "Swords Into Ploughshares" that might also provide some inspiration to this GB.

Replace the original SCUD missile with a large cannister of similar dimensions to the original missile and call it an upgrade to a new weapon system that was designed to replace the SCUD missile. As for physical details, well, leave that to their collective imaginations.
