Hi folks,

I am planning to build the titled vehicle, and I only have a very limited reference available.

Can anyone on this forum pointed me to the right direction in finding such material ?

Your help is much appreciated !

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,

Hermann

If you like to use photo-etch, Eduard has a set 35 512 that is for the M-151A1 Shmira. I'm sure a large amount of the parts would be applicable to your build.

Good luck with your project and be sure to post pictures!

Thanks Brent for the info, and great pics you got there, Frenchy.

I might be wrong,from the look of it, seems there are no standard configurations to these tank-killers, only the array of spare tubes looks identical.

So, lets head off to the drawing board and get those cutter blades ready,

Thanks again gentleman, its been a great help,

Cheers,

Hermann

Hay I built one of these back in 2010 and here's a link to my work. I hope it gives you some ideas.

It is and you may want to think about building the TOW Support unit as I plan on doing.

In the last photo you can see a TOW Support unit on the far left side.
