Of course, the interior has been completely refurbished too. The four tanks for the napalm fuel are all installed inside.
This could be interesting. It sounds like it has a zippo interior too. That may be enough to overlook some of the issues with the basic M113.

An accurate interior would be a blessing and certainly put the academy kit and verlinden upgrade kit in the shade.

I have the new AFV Club M113 in stash and that kit is excellent. I Assume AFV club will milk it in the future with other versions so there is realy no reason to pick up this offering from Dragon, especially if they sell it for >70 Euro what seems to be the norm right now.
