I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this company's models in general, or this model in particular? I've never heard of them, but then I haven't been around that long.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

1/48 scale. More a toy than a kit. Many detail missing, those details present are soft and toylike. Many parts out of scale.

Better off getting the NIMIX kit or scratchbuilding your own.

If you can get it really cheap ($5 or so) it might be a good kit to practice building skill on...

I bought the SCUD-B kit they had out back in 1992 or so. For that time it was pretty cool, but still toy-like. Once I started to get "real" kits to build, I could tell the difference in quality.

Thanks Jacques. I think I'm going to take a pass on this one. I haven't seen or heard anything good about it so far.

Being assigned to a PATRIOT battery in the mi-1990s, I can tell you for absolute certianty that the ARII 1/48 PATRIOT kits are completely innacurate. The HEMT-T tractors don't look anything like that, the Electrical Power Plant (EPP) was on an 800-series 5-ton, the Antenna Mast Group (AMG) & Engagement Control Station (ECS) were on M928 & M927 5-tons respectively. They really didn't do their research very well.

If will scratch build yours then take a look at Charles's scratch built version. He's seem to have done an accurate version ot it. There is also a WIP which would help you in putting yours together.

Here's the direct link to the finish build:
