Hi guys,

Just got back from AMPS, where I picked up Miniarm's sets for the T-72BV. I've found two walkarounds on DishModels, and some good shots on Otvaga, thanks to Marc Brandes. Does anyone know of any other good sources?

Cheers,

Olaf

start here http://btvt.narod.ru/5/t72b1990/t72b1990.htm http://btvt.narod.ru/5/t72b_mai/t72b_mai.htm
This page is a bit odd, double click the tumbnails for the larger pics.
I have a few dozen pics I scavenged from the net on my HD, feel free to pm me and I can send You them.

Do you mean the T-72B with era or the M1989 with K-5 era? As far as I know BV was an incorrect designation for the B fitted with K-1 era.

Rob,

You're right about the misnomer. I mean the version with K-1 ERA.

Tbh Olaf theres so many different designations floating around and incorrect information its an easy mistake to make, wouldnt it be nice if someone produced a comprehensive written volume on the T-72 series!?

Heres some links you may find useful:

http://serkoff.narod.ru/photoalbum43.html
http://www.btvt.narod.ru/5/t72b1/t72b1.htm
http://www.thetankmaster.com/english/afv/t72_01.asp

Theres some shots among these photos of T-72B's in Chechnya (some extremely graphic photos as well)
http://artofwar.ru/n/nemenow_a_e/an05.shtml

And a link as well that you may find useful, my on going build of a T-72B:
http://armorama.com/forums/156767#1315624

I have many more links and photos on my pc, I just have to dig them out.

One other tactic to try and find good references is do google searches in Cyrillic, e.g:

Т-72Б
Чечне танк (Chechnya tank)
русский танк (Russian tank)

etc, hope this helps for starters

@Karl187: Thanks. Must be a recent development, with that new turret - looks cool though.

@Spiderfrommars: Thanks, but I've already got that one - it's one of the two Dish Models ones.
