Hello all,
I am begining to build a Desert Shield/Storm M551 from the 3rd BN 73rd Armor for a freind. He said his tank was a TTS without the search light. I found a few pictures but nothing up close. My question, is there a difference in the turrets? Are there any additional housings for sights or anytihng?
Thanks

Also the 1960s-era smoke grenade launchers were replaced with the four barrel smoke grenade launchers found on Brads, M113s, and LAVs. The Sheridans retained the old SGL attachment brackets on the lower front of the turret.
