For all of you modelers who just can't get enough detail in your HUMVEE models, E.T. Model has an accessory kit for you. New in their line-up is a 1/35 Blue Force Tracker & SINCGAR unit using both resin and photo etch components. This is kit number E37-078 in their 1:35 AFV series of components.
While I will let the photos do the talking, this is another addition to their line-up of resin and PE kits for the Bronco HUMVEE. Of course enterprising modelers will add it to just about any HUMVEE kit they want.

For the posting on the manufacturer's website, follow the link below. Be sure to check out all their releases for 2011 while you are there.

Bill, Hans-Hermann is talking about the discrepancies of the kit BFT mounting not of the real system.

Discrepancies? Really? The BFT will work in any modern vehicle. These would work in most US vehicles. But why is this geared toward just HMMWVs? Thank goodness those trucks are a thing of the past now anyway.[/quote] Where did you get the idea that M 1114s are no longer in use? The MRAP series are an augmentation for 1114s not a replacement.

Just looked at the ET BFT kit. This kit fits the bill on what I had in my M1114 in Iraq 2004 -2005.The only part I see missing is the key board that stowed away. Now I just have to find a way of getting the kit

E.T Model must be applauded for this release, absolutely fantastic! This is one item that us Humvee fan's have long required, and this set looks superb. I am aware of the D-toys set, but its hard to come by and the etch mount looks way better.

I wonder if the keyboard is part of the PE frame, perhaps with the keyboard tray in the stowed position.

Nice little set there. Shame the BFT antenna is not quite right. Check out Jeff's post. Last one on the page. https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/147823 Cheers Jason
