Stumbled upon this one....
Now this looks like a fun build to make.

Wouldn't be hard. Kit bash an Italeri 5T kit with Dragons or AFV Clubs 105 Howitzer. The cabin, side armor, and ammo bins could be made out of Evergreen stock.

It's so retro looking. When I first saw the truck I thought it was from the 1920s or 30s. Very cool with an old school vibe.

Nice reuse of old M1 105mm howitzers. Don't know why they didn't go whole hog to an auto-loader to cut the dismount time even shorter.
And with the number of guns North Koreans have the South definitely needs a shoot-n-scoot capability.
Maybe this is for second tier units and for sale in the third world?

I was having the same thoughts. ROK military has the crazy high tech K9 Thunder howitzers so why downgrade? From the look of the video, it looks like Samsung's promotional video for foreign buyers.
