Real Model sells the armoured cab for the HEMTT. I wonder if its the same product? I swear I had one of those in my stash, I just can't find it.

i agree, especially since both Italeri and Trumpeter have improved their wheels/tires.

A conversion to A3 standard would also be very neat.

Looks like the cab must be soldered to obtain a good result?

No, it's different.

The HEMTT A3 version was an experimental diesel-electric hybrid drive system that was not bought by the US Military (nor anyone else that I know of). Experimental M1120A3 LHS The most current fielded version is the A4, which includes the larger cab from the PLS, larger air cleaner box from the PLS, redesigned engine compartment w/two external radiators, air-ride suspension, redesigned instrument panel and interior, and a few other smaller changes. All older HEMTTs are being upgraded to the A4 standard. M1120A4 LHS w/soft cab left side M1120A4 w/soft cab right side M1120A4 LHS w/armored cab All of the current HEMTT kits are A2 versions; Italeri's various versions (M977 cargo, M978 tanker, M985 guntruck, M1120 LHS), Dragon's M983 tractor (reworked Italeri base kit), and Trumpeter's M983 tractor. Of the lot, Trumpeter's M983 is the best. Hopefully Trumpeter will come out with their M1120A2 LHS soon. Or even better, make it an M1120A4 LHS, one can always hope.

These are cool vehicles, and judging by the comments left so far, are of deep and abiding interest to many others as well. Looking forward to seeing more versions soon.

Pawel, thx for the clarification. Gino, great photos. I meant this version, just used the wrong name. It would be really cool to have a kit of it.

Absolutely do not understand why no one has yet to offer an A4 conversion for the HEMTT.
