Most folks are waiting for T-80U/T-80UD aka the royal soviet blood tanks, not some post-cold war ukraine modification....

Hi;

I Dont Care Who Makes It !!!!! Its Another vehicle to add to my collection. The T-84,84M,Oplot,Bulat,Black Eagle are all interesting vehicles ! Other subjects like the Arjun,& the Korean K-2 would also peak my interest,

CHEERS; MIKE.

Love the Heavies, though the Oplot M has the best look of the Urkainian tanks, followed by the T-64BM1 with the no-skirt ERA that forms a circular ring around the turret front and is the kewlest of the chisel-cheeked tanks.

Big Problem: No light tanks. No Stingray, no PL-01, no XM-8, no CCVL.

Should be easy to do, much smaller and fewer external parts than the MBTs. It would be extremely nice to see these in play as they are _very_ popular on AW.

Would also really like to see Trumpeter or others take a chance on doing Eastern tanks with their unique, Soviet era, camouflage nets.

These look like a herd of snakes with little serpentines standing in for traditional scrim or garnish and completely alter the look of the vehicles. Tan for summer. White for winter. Gauze or other standins just don't cut it.
