Was wondering if anyone has the new Trumpeter MAZ-537 (last production). What are the differences between this and the others, besides the obvious lack of the trailer?

The most recent MAZ-537 series kit from Trumpeter (#1005) is the KZKT-537L variant which is a heavy duty tractor, often used to tow aircraft :

It's fitted with a small cargo bed used to carry cast-iron ballast (up to 16t) to improve traction when towing heavy loads.

Thank you! What about this one?

latest version have no fenders above the back wheels,and new side intakes to cool the engine.but...it never saw battle!!! thats all my friend.

OOOPS My bad ! I should have asked about the kit you had in mind. I must have missed this one
Another difference is that the fuel tanks casing has been removed on last model MAZs (to make access to the filler caps easier) :

Early model :


Last model :

Thanks for all the help!
So it seems like this late production release is actually a simplified version of the previous trumpeter releases?

Hi,

Two things I have noticed from the above pix :

- The late and (some of) the last type seem to have no winch housing at all
- The "last type" Trumpeter kit seems to have a diferent rubber tyre design that looks better than the ones I had in the intermediat type kit I built.
