Hi everybody !!

I´m planning to build this vehicle (Trumpeter´s), but want to add the engine compartment and transmision if posible, so the question is:

Somebody knows if there is an aftermarket engine and transmision for this kit, have pictures of it, or if maybe can I use another engine?

I´m not expert in this vehicle so any information you can give me will be appreciate.

Thanks

Hi

You'll find some Shilka engine and transmission pics here :

maybe they'll help even if the engine is a different variant of the V-6 engine. AFAIK, the ZSU-23-4 is fitted with a V-6P1 whereas the SA-6 is fitted with a V-6R

ZSU-23-4 (GM-575) and 2P25 (GM-578) different the transmission.
Different the gasturbine, Shilka DG-4M1, Sa-6 2PW8.

Thanks for the correction

Thanks for the reply guys !!

I manage to get the SA-6 Gainful in detail book from W&W Publications they use a 2P25 (M3) vehicle in various pictures and mention that it uses a V6R Water Cooled Diesel Engine with 6 cylinders in Line and 6 gear manual transmition.

Now another question
In the book they mention M1,M2 and M3 variants of this vehicle, can somebody tell me the main diferences of them ?

Thanks for your time

The age, and wired.
Inside (interior) instruments, wireless antenna type and color, cables.
M-modification and modernization.
M and M1 the early export versions.
M2, the M1 version corrected version, and M3 the latest uprgraded and modernised version.
Modernised the data systems (digitalised), wire change and shadowed, computerised vehicles.
Hungarian Army 1S91 Surn and 2P25 Spu-s change the originak tracks the diehl tracks, modernised optical target search, and plus extra infrared cameras (ir).
Modified and changed new IFF (old tipe SRZO-IFF).

Other systems and modernisations top secret.
Sorry.

As noted, changes are electronic and/or missile related. Some countries have retrofitted new "parts" for the system, and there are various upgrades proposed like the one with US Built "Sparrow" missiles with the appropriate guidance system.

Some time ago I read a build article (don´t remember were and can´t find it) from Steve Zaloga were he says that the model hull it´s a little bit short and made some modifications, what about this

Well guys maybe are a lot of questions but you know how is when you obsess with a model.
