Edit - I thought there wasn't a kit out there, but while I was Google-ing for the chassis type I found the Jadar/5-Star resin kit in 1:35 which I assume the tracks are for?http://www.jadar.com.pl/5star/35001/index.html. I don't think anyone makes tracks for it, generally aftermarket would only be for main stream injection kits. Sure would be nice to see a plastic kit of it someday.

Yes, I also hope that Trumpeter would bring us a good 1/35 Tunguska kit !!!
The 5Star-kit is very expensive (for me), but the only choice.
Skif has announced their own kit several years ago, but (as announcements of some other companies) didnīt appaeared yet.

Here are some quick photos havent started building prob start this week end



thats witha SA-4 about 1/2 done



this is a 5 star kit I will post as I build. as for price if TRUMPETER built one the cost would be about the same, the cost of plastic models har been riseing as the dollar falls I paid around $115 with shipping +tax so around 125. not to bad. + its the only game in town if you want this system.

Wow, nice kit. Thanks for the pictures and information Jim. I am looking forward to your build. Your pictures make me consider purchasing one, they are alot better than the small pictures on Jadar's site. - Bobby

Thanks for the images of your Tunguska-kit!
Looking forward to see the build!

I have 2 small Tunguska-kits from Military-wheels in 1/72, but their quality is "not easy". ;-)
So, itīs for the experienced modeler, I think.
I built only one of the kits, while the second is not opened yet. But the camo-options are interesting.

Pawel (Tankmania) did the masters for the Tunguska for 5-Star SFAIK. So I imagine it is a good kit.

Tracks for the base vehicle are unique to it. No models, in 1/35, have been made of it that I know of, so, no new tracks.
