Hi all,
I just started the above kit. It's just good but not excellent. There is some flash, the instructions are sometimes confusing with some parts ill-numbered, the details are generally soft. It comes with indy links which have not the mushroom shaped guide horn.
The parts shared with the BMD's are mainly the AT4 missile firing post but they're just good enough for your bin.
The fit is mean and you'll get extra work to get a perfect match of both hull halves.
Strangely, EE have omitted the vertical fins at the back of the vehicle.

And now some pics

EDIT : willing to depict the ZD version, I'll be happy if any member had a clear view (or even many) of the way the ZU 23-2 is mounted on the roff of the BTR-D. TIA
