I have one of IBG Models' Universal Carrier kits ... very impressed, but really don't have the patience to deal with the individual-link tracks (miniscule in 1/72-scale). I am aware that someone produces resin one-piece tracks for these kits, but was wondering whether the Vickers Mk.VI was fitted with the same type of track as the Universal Carrier. If so, I may invest in a set from Ace Model. Failing that, did any other vehicle use the same type of track?

Fundamentally (and especially in this scale), the Mk VI tracks are more than adequate for a Universal Carrier.

Individual Carden Loyd links in 1/72! Oy! That's the sort of thing you'd need a microscope to assemble.
