Yes it was used in Astan. But there it has an reactive armor on the roof. This is not included in the kit.

Hi Roger,
yes, we used 5 guns down in A`Stan. While I provided Meng with the nessecary references for a PzH2000A1 with Igelpanzerung, they obviously did made use of it. So far OOTB the Meng kit could be build with markings from Germany, Nederlands and Greece.
