I think that I remember some news some time ago, not the last months but not a whole year ago either, about some company in Turkey that were planning/had announced a model of some Turkish M113 variant. Possibly stretched and I think it had some kind of missile launchers.
Does this ring any bells with anyone?

I managed to find it on the fifth attempt.

I could be mistaken but I believe that it's a ready made model:

Your welcome,
I'll certainly buy that too. The company says about this kit will be cheaper than derivatives of this type of vehicle in 1/35

It's funny (well, actually sad) how more and more manufacturers are shifting their online activities to FB and neglect their own website completely...

Not surprising, considering that a website update needs a good amount of work and specialized staff (unless it was designed to add content easily, which usually is not). On the other hand anyone can open a facebook account and post...
