Ok I don't do a lot of armour so rarely venture over here to the dark side however I've seen a picture of a IDF Shot Kal with a TWMP which I'd like to do, so can any one point me in the direction of a TWMP?

Seems this question gets asked every year.
If, like me you're looking for the Mine Plow off the M1 Abrams
Trumpeter makes a 5 in 1 kit containing it and you could still make another tank
or
Tamiya makes and M1 with the Plow
I managed to contact Tamiya USA to order just the spruce with the plow
instructions here

you'll need spruce "E"

Careful with which mine plow you want to build, as each country's version was a little different. DO your research first , for example the US version, can not be used for a German/Canadian version, even-though they look alike.

Thanks guy's.

Going by the caption to the photo, the Centurion is IDF and is being used to demonstrate the TWMP to the Aussies as a possible purchase for their then current Leopards.

So the version I need is IDF.

Hi!
This plough comes in different versions. For example, the slightly smaller version of Leopard has only 5 tines per side, whereas the M1/M60 version has 6 tines and is wider. Between these two, 90% of the plough kit is different in design. From the look od design, this is clearly the Leopard1 Version. This one is not available as a kit today and to convert it from the M1 plough is really difficult. Here you find a scratch built TWMP of this design by Walter Lampel:

The light grey parts are from the M1 TWMP, the white ones are different and scratch. Here you see how less parts can be taken from the M1 TWMP.


Hopefully the Leopard plough is available in the near future in resin as it is also a product used by Denmark within UN/Kosovo missions.

Patience will indeed pay off.
