The Bushmaster is very welcome but if this is the Australian version then what is the raised structure on the roof about midway I've not seen this before perhaps this is a Dutch modification.

I believe this is the Dutch version with additionnal armor on the sides.

Someone has made a very nice scratch of this with the Showcase Models kit.

Kinetic? Yes. But they don't release armor kits anymore, only aircraft.

Well that sucks because they were making a 1/35 M992 to go with the M109.

Wonder if they are going to finish the 1/72 C-17.

Bushmaster was announced in 2014, we are almost in 2020 !

Not very serious, they make announcements and then let people wait during many years.

Of course, they are not the only ones to proceed this way.

For example, for clothes, don't need to wait during 10 years to see the new collection !
