Hi all

Here is my T-62 (1962) from Trumpeter with RB-models resin set, Master Club tracks and homemade storage for the turret.
Inspiration comes from the different threads here on Armorama about the Afghan war in the 80's.











Let me know what you think of it.

Happy modeling
Ole

Nicely played Ole! Something different with the tread armor on the turret.

Yep, that was my thought as well.
I like the different look of it compared to a "normal" T-62.

Thanks for your comment.

Hi Paul

Thank you very much for the feedback. Glad you liked it.

Sounds interesting with the campaign. I already have the T-55 and the Enigma sitting on the shelves, just waiting for an opportunity like this:)

Where can I find more info about the campaign?

Nice job On the T-62. Love the extra Turret armor. Adds a whole different look top the tank. I have one in the Cold War Campaign and it is of the plain variety because that's what I saw across the boredr when I was Stationed in Germany when the wall was up!

Thanks for the feedback, guys.

Just too boring with a plain t-62

I better check out that CWC and your T-62.

Hello,
I would like to know if only T-62 M1962 were fitted with the added tracks armor around the turret or other versions were too?

The main problem for me is the schnorchel, I would like to add the schnorchel on my kit and the tracks on the turret.

But if other versions of this tank were fitted with the tracks, may the Russians have removed the schnorchel?
