Question for the experts out there. How similar is the M109A2 interior to the Paladin. Not looking for exact precision, but if I were to use the Warriors/KMC interior sets would they work on the Paladin? I can do simple corrections, just wondered whether they worth using as a starting point.

You can use it as a starting point. Most of the lower hull is very similar. The turret interior is very different. All of the hydraulics that are inside the turret on the M109A2 are now moved outside the fighting compartment to the compartment of the front left of the turret. The fire control system is now a digital unit in front of the TC as well. So lots of changes in the turret.
