I bought my copy direct from Pla Editions and it was very quick to arrive. That said you can pick it up in the UK from Bookworld Wholesale

I hope this helps

I have had a chance to look through my copy (received very quickly) and am overall pleased with the coverage; more reference photos than I had expected (although the famous photo of that USMC weathered M1A1 is mis-captioned as an M1A2). Also noted that two of the featured models using the Dragon 3535 kit didn't put on the side panel for the NBC pack. Dragons instructions to be sure, but should be picked up by modellers of this caliber? Anyway, a good addition to the Abrams reference library.
