Hi Ed;
Can you be more specific, I am not quite sure what hill referes to in your question. As for Miniarm there conversions are High Quality for A Resin kit, and require A bit of expirence when working with A resin kit, and there small parts can be A Pain as there placement has to be Accurate on the Turret. I have built quite A few of there Conversions and like them A lot as they are Super Accurate.
CHEERS; MIKE.

Hi Ed;
Did you look at JDs excellent Blog on the T-72s ! When trying to build A Correct Version it can be some-what of A enigma as there are many Different Variations on A Specific T-72, Zavod re-builds can add to the Confusion when trying too pick out A Mk; or build A certain vehicle.
GOOD LUCK; MIKE.

Try searching on b3m instead, same vehicle alternative designation. Only 4 mad for gunnery competition if I recollect.

I can't help directly but can pass along a trick given to me.
Convert your search term to Cyrillic characters via Google translate and you may have a bit more luck as it will grab many of the lesser known Russian sites out there.
