A very good review of another one of AFV Club's gems in their M109 series. I really like the rounds and powder cans w/Hebrew markings on them. Now we just need an M992 ammo carrier to go with them.
That excellent breech doesn't have to go to waste. There is an interior set for this one, sort of. The Black Dog M109A2 interior set can be used as a base with a few mods for the Israeli specific parts.
Kieth Forsyth did an awsome job on a Doher interior using the Black Dog set as a base.

Quoted Text
The breech of the gun has been beautifully tackled by AFV Club with an especially high level of detail present; the down side is that this wonderful detail cannot be shown due to the lack of interior detail and I am not aware of an interior kit being available.

Adie I am not so sure you will get that past Jade and I can hear the shouting from here.
Gino: Thank you for looking in an especially the information as I could not find an interior.

Thank you for the nice presentation. AFV CLub M109 kits are superb.
So here is the 1.000.000$ question:
Does one buy the Doher or the M109A2 and the Legend conversion set?
