Thanks Frank. Yes, as Olivier indicated, these are Estonian troops deployed with ISAF. They operated about six MAXXPROS in conjunction with their infantry.

Best wishes,

Ian

Very nice build. I think the only thing that might need tweaking is the tailpipe.

Might want to rename the Dio. Not much "Vigilance" with the driver and gunner dismounted.
