Anyone know of a source for a 1/35th scale MILES kit for the M113A2?
Link to the MILES system
http://www.carson.army.mil/tsc/catalog.html

Looking for the Legacy or first gen system.

Thanks

There are not any MILES sets on the market currently. People who replicate them typically use masking tape cut in thin strips to replicate the Velcro and then sensors, etc are usually scratchbuilt.

Looks pretty good. I want to wire up a M113 since I have to put on the MILES Velcro anyway. I guess see if I can bring up the TC on the web. Still the tank looks pretty good

That's too bad. I've been searching for MILES gear for my Trumpeter MTLB.
