Beautiful!

All I need now is an injection Mack NO and my Brit Heavy Regiment will be completely equipped.

I've been holding out for Thundermodel's Recovery Tractor but now with this Howitzer on the horizon I may want the AT instead ( or also - Wifey Dear - where is the credit card ? ).

Yay, finally a Spike Milligan North-Africa themed diorama becomes possible.

I wonder if they'll include both barrel lengths? For the un-initiated, the MK6 had a new-build barrel 1.96m longer than the Mks I-IV, which were all converted from 8" Howitzers.

An Albion CX22 would be nice right about now too .......... Or a Militant Mk1 arty tractor. The Mk6 7.2 was in service until the early 60's
