Found these this morning over at
MilitaryPhotos.net:
Up-armoured vehicles are giving extra protection to the soldiers of the 9th/12th Royal Lancers, as they provide security in the Nahr-e Saraj (North) district of Helmand Province. BAE Systems has upgraded the armour on all five vehicles that make up the CVR(T) family – Scimitar, Spartan, Samson, Sultan and Samaritan.
Enjoy...

Those vehicles are the new Scimitar 2......a Spartan hull with a Scimitar turret and crew survivability enhancements.
Who will be the first to create a kit?....my bet is Accurate Armour.
