Well, a model of an obscure tank - it went together well, no filler required, all in all a smooth ( almost boring ) build.
You can see why it was a failure - a heavy tank, to carry only 12 missiles ( think BRDM ) - and given that the missile was radio controlled, and easily jammed, could only be fired when stationary ( until the missile hit ), and was only useful against tanks - why not have a nice multi purpose 120mm gun?
I'll be starting my build of the Vulcan 1/35 Light Tank VIB of the BEF, shortly
