Anybody know about the diesel engine installation on IIRC the Danish rebuilds? I wondering what the engine deck and rear look like. I’ve wondered if a 1/48th M-60 engine deck would fit.

It just occurred to me the TS-90 turret of the Panhard ERC-90 might be a good fit as well

Way back in this thread I have a mockup with a Bradley turret and a  LAV-150 Commando turret and Cockerill 90mm gun, so that may work.

I think I've got some resin Panhard Turrets (and hulls) that'd be good starting points.

Hear me out - what if this ship's mission was to create an LZ for landing firefighting equipment?

It hovers and starts a back-burn, pops up to observe and then dumps it's water load on the LZ prior to the Smoke Jumpers and/or gear being landed by other means?

Damn! Ten days from Cat.5 Incident to more advanced replacement!

Certainly looks at least as good, I would suggest a touch better!

Thanks Wombat, I'm a lot happier with this one.

Hello friends,
and now with Aerials from Leopardclub/ leopardworkshop

Nice touch, Didi 

A minor note - skinny electrical tape wouldn't be the first choice for attaching the glow-stick water bottles. More commonly, 4-inch plastic tape was used. Tape colours were usually OD, grey, or blue (3M #471 - same colour as the bottle caps used to hold in the IR sticks).
