FYI GMF Husar is the Austrian version of the IVECO LMV. I had last year a brief encounter with a GMF Husar. Unfortunatly, the truck was covered with netting, so I couldn`t do any details. Aside from the Israeli-made RWS, I wonder if one of the LMV releases from MMK could be used as a Husar?

Talking about the ERCWS-M, it's the WS4 Panther :

I think I can build the WS 4 now, using parts of the RoG FLW200.
If only I know if Italeri`s LMV kit is any good?

Hans-Hermann, although I've not done a close inspection or review of the Italeri Lince, it looks very nice "in the box". It looks typical of Italeri's models of Italian subjects, some of their best efforts.

Just downloaded it, thanks! My LHS has the UN kit on discount, so I spend the leftover money for a set of DEF wheels. Maybe not an easy conversion, but something unique.

Hi Hans-Hermann,
None of the Italeri kits can be used for the Austrian Husar. It has a completely different roof configuration (besides other issues).
