The drawings have been sent.
Received in MP, asking where it came from the M2 and M240, I'm posting here because it can be doubt of another modeler.
The weapons came from this set of AFV, and I use a lot of what's in it yet.

Hello friends,
Model construction is stopped due to work commitments, I'll stay out of the work bench for a few months.
Soon possible return.

My Friends,
Thank you all for accompanying, incentives, praise and criticism.
I finished the installation of the antennas, I tried to organize the cargo bed, still have to work on radios, tarps, camouflage nets and small details, I hope you are enjoying the results.

Sergio,
Coming along very nicely, I like the use of Legend's equipment..same thing I added to my Stryker RV.
Got 2 questions for you..
What's with the Humvee tires?
How did you make the MRT antenna..particularly the part with the 8 point star..looks like a photoetch bit.

I agree. And why only 3 humvee tires? Let me guess-- an accompanying humvee carries one spare on itself.
Awesome work.

Dear Sergio,
this is a great build. I can´t wait to see it finished.
Just FYI that there were only the Humvee spare wheels carried on the special rear mounts. At least this is what I´ve seen on the photos.
PS: Check your PM box.
Sincerely
Jiri

Nick,
In this model I used the following sets:
Tires and wheels: Lion Roar (may use the kit, I do not know for sure) and Voyager “Super Swamper” Dumvee
Accessories: Legend, Tamiya, Real Model, Armorscale and Verlinden.
Weapons: AFV Stryker Set.
About Humvee tires, this truck serves as a support for the Special Forces Humvees, if you look at the picture below you see the Super Swamper tires, in support, can see that the support is over, probably would fit two more tires, I decided to mix with the Michelin truck tires.
The picture will detail the building of antennas.
More pictures of the antennas.

Sean,
I'll try to summarize the research.
These trucks serve as mobile bases, for light reconnaissance vehicles (Humvee, Bike and Quad), they carry everything, fuel, rations, ammunition, spare parts, tools and all that is needed to increase the autonomy of these vehicles. Not only for the use of the truck.
Not only for the use of the truck.

Hi Jiri,
As I said above, I decided to mix the tires "Super Swamper" with Michelin, maybe put a motorcycle tire, but I need to find him in the box of leftovers.
I have to leave later say his PM.
Thank you.

Talking to Jiri, on assembly of M-2 concluded that support was wrong. And based on new information made a new one. The naval pedestal mount would be correct.
I thank everyone who has contributed somewhat to assembly.
