randypandy831 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) would the T-72B3 count since it's still in Russian service? as for the PLA Type 99, it's either bronco or hobby boss. Edited January 2, 2017 by randypandy831 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Matt Foley Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Add the new Academy M1A2. It is a gem and you can also build the M1A2 SEPV2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thorve Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 M1A1 Abrams - Rye Field Models 5006 for a Desert Storm M1A1 or 5007 for A1/A2 complete with interior. As for the Merkava Mk.IV I actually prefer the HobbyBoss kit although I perfectly understand that fixing the lower hull and the corresponding mine protection armor plate is not to everyone's liking.

jrpowell3 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) I think the Meng M1A1 AIM kit(TS-032) is amazing. Edit: Sorry for resurrecting a year dead thread....but I'm building this one now and the thing fits together beautifully, has a fully functional suspension with torsion bars and is incredibly accurate.

Ant Phillips Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 The Trumpeter Challenger 2 Enhanced Armour kit is also pretty good, it has upgraded parts compared to the original release, including an all new turret moulding and of course has the Bar Armour too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
