Trumpeter has announced a couple of far off kits in the works, and Russian AFV fans should be excited.

Good to see the image of the BRDM-2- that one was always high on people's 'most wanted' list.
Thanks for bringing us the news Kevin.

IT WAS THE TIME INDEED!!
Anyway, when Trumpeter shows cad drawings it means that we have to wait at least some months to see the kit.
That's good for me. Actually I'm empty of kits so i think I'll wait to buy it for now

I know what you mean, Mauro... I have a very long Must-buy list of modern kits that's keeping me broke all the time. I quit smoking a year ago to have more spending money.. but it's just not enough

Wach out Dragon!
Dragon could make so much money with high quality russian stuff,but they dont do.
Start producing soviet stuff and not paper-panzers
Nice to see the KV-1S is coming..next one please to be KV-85.
And maybe one day we get a soviet armored train

I wish I was able to quit soon. For now I haven't been able to do it yetHowever I think the next I'll buy will be their T-64 (i've been waiting for it for AGES)

It would be great, but in my opinion Dragon isn't interested at all to modern Russian stuff...and it never will
I think that probably we could hope to Meng anyway

Still can't believe that no one has seen fit to produce a decent BMP-1. It's only the most produced IFV on the planet.
Sad.....

Judging by the way things are going with Trumpeter it is likely they will do one in the future... at least I hope so!

...yes, for sure but....WHEN?
I've collected some scale drawings of it,I have a bunch of reference included the user's manual. I've bought the masterclub tracks and wheels. I've also bought on special offer the awful old ESCI kit which I'll use to get some parts from...I'm tempted to start a scratchbuild project.. It will take me about twelve years to make it... I think that a decent kit will have been released by then

I've been waiting for a decent BRDM kit since I tried my hand at the Skif one. Glad to see Trumpeter continuing to produce eastern armor.
