Why is it so difficult for model producers to release a SISU XA180 in a model kit, we are atleast some countries that have used this apc, and it has been used in peace keeping missions with some countries...
Instead of release same kits as other company already have or a new panther or tiger for the 20th time, please release something new instead...

So please Meng,Bronco,Trumpeter,Italeri,Revell ,Afv club/ Hobby fan or some other resin company... Make some of us happy and release the Sisu xa180 in a kit...

yes... Here is a link to the swedish version, but it looks much more cool in Swedisch camoflage instead of UN white...

You're right. It's really unfortunate, that we see kits of the same aircraft and vehicles produced over and over, while other subjects are ignored. Also, there are many of aircraft and vehicles that were only used by one country, while others, that were widely exported and used, are never produced.
