Hello everyone!!
I received the MTVR Trumpeter is a little beauty .....

I wish I modified the tray and turn the car to make the MK23 release.

In this version the cabin is up-armored and tray provides protection for the protection of the troops.

It seems that it is the Israeli Society Plasan féalise that this protection kit.

So I ask the comunity help in the form of photos or videos about Gift this monster!!




So thanks in advance friends and very soon you deposit for the photos of the project!

I say to you very soon!

Good luck for your scratchbuild.

It looks me very difficult to make an armored truck with this kit.

I hope Trumpeter will make a kit of this.

I hope this helps/works I'm new to the community...I took this pic at sunset in Ramadi in 2008 before we rolled back to base. We also attached mine rollers to the front of at least 1 MTVR flat bed for every convoy and one on a Force Protection "Cougar" MRAP. This truck was our "bump" truck that had a M105 trailer with a spare tire, tow bar(s), tools, oil, diesel, jacks, basically all the SL3 gear we didn't have room for in the trucks that we were supposed to have.

And here is one with a flat bed MK23 with a mine roller....I really hope these links work.

Also the armor kit on the troop transport we called the truck an armadillo, it has the benches back to back down the middle with waist high armor plate inbetween and we hung a thick blast/Kevlar blanket at the rear to keep anyone safe.

Hi, I am new to the Forum but have been reading and enjoying the topics on the M TVR. Voyager has just releasted several AM kits for this kit and could be helpful in your build.
