This is a really nice looking set, but its a shame to see some much effort go into a vehicle which barely even exists. I believe that the Russians certainly arent using the ERA set, and the UAE had planned too but costs where rather high.
I'd rather see you guys produce some slat for the T-62 or T-72.

It looks like a big step forward compared to the original trumpeter parts. Still, I agree with Rob, slat for other models would be nice too.

The sets look nice but my frustration (and others have expressed the same) with these is the hassle of figuring out which set is which. From the photos, you can see multiple set numbers are listed and unless the manufacturer provides some explanation or you do an online search, it is impossible to decipher. Why can't you just give titles next to those kit numbers in smaller fonts on the photos themselves? Also maybe provide a comprehensive set like Eduard does with their Big Ed products? It is unintentionally giving off a vibe that Voyager wants to confuse us and charge more money for every stinking option (somewhat like car dealers do).

Oh i think thats more than intentional, and frankly its massively annoying. I hate such business practices as this where you have to check the small print to discover that you arent buying everything you think you are, in fact it drives me so crazy I will often buy elsewhere. So take note Voyager-it doesnt wash.
