Thanks. They have not stated yet if it will have one missile or two inside from what I can see.

Just gotta love those honking huge pieces of Soviet/Russian gear. Do we in the West have anything comparable?

The built model they have shown at one of the shows had one missile with the second container open but empty. I think I have seen that on their Facebook page...
I guess you can order a separate sprue for the second rocket in case you need one. Although, it might take a few weeks/months until it becomes available. Nonetheless, at the expected prices (around 100 Euro) there would have probably been headroom for an additional sprue...

I have one on the way. Looks like the suspension is the same as their SCUD/SMERCH models.

I got mine off of Ebay. The seller was willing to accept an offer, so I got 5 bucks off of the list price

I'm happy, with the missile defense system.

Mine came in last week. One big box and a lot of plastic.

Squadron has it in stock. It is where I got mine. They had some discounts going on last week so I got an ok deal although shipping canceled most of the savings.

It comes with two, each on a separate sprue. I have kit and it is a ton of plastic.

Excellent, thanks.

I looked over the directions before I boxed it back up and tossed it in the stash (figuratively). I thought I saw that you can build the radar in the stowed position. I did not see any step showing it in the stowed position. I have not yet hit the interwebs to find out how it is stowed so I got lazy and posted here. Any comment on this, or has all those years being exposed to 2nd hand Testor's glue (red/white tube) finally getting to me...
Cheers

From the looks of the kit, you can make it in the stowed position by omitting a few parts and folding the antenna over the main cab. Won't know for sure until I start building it.

Who stows the radar when building this kit? Thought half the point of building it was to make it all "Big and Proud"?
Just a little joking Robbie.
But, is there a specific reason why you want to build it with the radar stowed? Just curious.

If and I say if I do ever get around to build this thing, I might have a space issue and wanted options. My Dragon Scud kit has a similar issue along with my Trumpeter's SA-2 launcher kit along with Trumpeter SA-2 Transporter.
