For those who are interested I came across a website that has a review of dragon's new RSO with Pak 40. There is even a build up review of it started, defiantly worth checking out.

Defiantly or definitely?

Looks like a very nice kit. Does anyone know how many of these little guys actually saw service?

While there were grand hopes/ambitions for this design (plans for production of up to 400 per month!), actual combat experience showed it to be less-than-successful and it never entered full scale production after the intial field trials. Only about 60 were produced and saw combat as a result.

I'll think I'll be defiant. I still have a loaded Italeri kit I haven't built yet.
