That's looking rather good Ian, I like the tilting cab, it's not often you get to see the engine detail in builds.

This is looking real good Ian.


I've got the Arii kits for the Patriot system (Launcher, Radar unit, Aerial trailer and Control unit) in 1/48 scale. Although less detailed and more toy-like than yours, I'm tempted to move mine up my 'to do' list thanks to your build!

I'll see how I get on with the two forum builds I'm doing (my P47 which is still causing problems and my artillery which isn't!).

That's beautifully finished Ian. Do you have the option to show a missile being launched like this one? (I know you have the talent!) Or is that your 'little plan'?


View attachment 102083



This one is the 1/48 Arii kit I mentioned (full build here http://plamo.outthere.info/forum/showthread.php?tid=10089&page=3)


Yours would look better as the kit you've got is so much more detailed.


PS My apologies if I've interrupted your thread with images from another modeller's build.

Nice work. A battery of Dutch Patriots passed through RAF Kinloss for refuelling. It was weird seeing soldiers with pony tails and beards. It took them all day to refuel before laying up for the night. The next day I was driving down the A9 to Glasgow, my mistake was to leave after the Dutch. Their convoy had the whole section of A9 between Carrbridge and Perth crawling along at 40 MPH.
