I just picked up an interior detail kit from
Black Dog studios out of the Czech Republic for the M1126 ICV kit from AFV Club for my
AFV Club 1:35th Scale TACP Stryker
Obviously, some modification is necessary (if you look at the 2005 Air Force news article I linked in that earlier post) to make it work for a CV/TACP variant, but it is manageable. Besides, there are so many ways to fix things that might not fit just right... We had so much crap in those vehicles, it wasn't funny... Such is mechanized warfare, why pack light when you stick ammo cans full of ammo in every crevice not filled with MRE's, AT-4 rockets, a set of cots, or someones assault pack?!
Speaking of MREs, I think Black Dog Studios is the first aftermarket kit, or mass produced kit for that matter, with a modern US forces in Iraq or Afghanistan NOT to have a set of MRE's in the kit... Amazing! I never realized there were so many MREs just laying about...
