Here are my Hägglunds BV206 in 1/35 scale in early building progress...i have had it stand for a long time ( 10years ) because of the photoetched tracks that are impossible to build.. But hopefully the Takom bv206s tracks will fit even if they are not the correct.. But on a diorama with high grass you dont see that.. So then i can finish the kit
Here is a link to the model how it looks like now..

Hi Hakan,

I do have the kit and my verdict on the tracks was the same. I never started it. I also never saw a picture of a built one. I did several BV206 pictures (also from the under carriage), at least in the German army BV206 used 2 different types of tracks and one of them is at least the same design as on the Bv206S. I would expect even the running gear has common parts.

For those like me who are not on fb, is there any chance to put the pictures public so that also without fb account?

The Takom Kit has the 2nd pattern of BV206S suspension and tracks. I do not know that the BV206D ever had the later pattern of suspension, but it would be logical that later-production versions might have done. IIRC 206S production lasted longer than 206D. The replacement for the 206D, the Beowulf, was launched in 2015.

Hi Andreas, i will try to figure out how to show pictures here directly as i dont know that yet.. I'm not so tecnical of me when it comes to computers.. Otherwise if i can not do it i can send you pictures to your email when i have built little more on the kit..
I have only seen 1 model built of this kit many years ago so most of us that have it did never started it or quit like i did.. So i hope the tracks from takom kit will fit..

I hope you don't mind Hakan (but please don't ask me to explain how I've done this in English ! )
