-Hi
I just got myself a MT-LB Soviet tractor/APC from a maker named UM? I purchased it through Squadron.
Anyway, I want to replace the tracks w/ metal ones and my question is this...
Does anybody know what kind of tracks are on a MT-LB??
or... What other tank/APC uses the same type track as the MT-LB??
They look similar to BMP-1 style to me, but often I'm wrong.
Any help would be... helpful, so thanks in advance.
And Thanks for reading along

MT-LB tracks are the same as on the 2S1 Gvozdika. No other tracks are the same as on the MT-LB.
Fruil makes some, as well as Master CLub clickable resin tracks which I would recomend.
The UM kit is a reboxed SKIF MT-LB.

WoW!! That was fast!!
Thank You! Thank You! to Sgt.Sauer & Jacques!!!!
I thought this kit looked a little.... Skif-ish. And as for the track info, that's just what I was looking for. I knew the folks here wouldn't disapoint, and you-all didn't!!
Again Thanks and I'm off to spend more money.

I think you may replace road wheels too (from master club or miniarm) . Road wheels from kit are wrong.
P.S. Fruil makes early type tracks, miniarm and masterclub - late type.
