Hello all in the new year! Do we have any German friends here or anyone that know if it's possible to use the Perfect scale models PiPz 1 Leopard AEV
http://www.perfect-scale.de/de/www-perfect-scale-de/PiPz-1-mit-Inneneinrichtung.html?XTCsid=t2ctvrpk1u0qnm5l03sputma56And put and Leopard 1 engine like this on back on the veichle?
Mean psm leopard 1 engine
http://www.perfect-scale.de/de/www-perfect-scale-de/Leopard-1-Triebwerk.htmlOr was it only the ARV versions that drive out a spare engine? In that case what do the AEV have back over the engine hatch? As there seem to be 1 big attachment on each side of the engine net? What do they put on that ones?
Hope someone can help

The AEV carries stowage racks for the auger components when it is not attached to the crane boom.
The curved parts on the back deck on either side of the engine air intake grill are dozer blade extensions.
The ARV has specific welded on mounts to carry the powerpack support mount. I am not sure if the AEV mounts for the auger component stowage rack are exactly the same as the ARV.
