Through model making I have become fascinated with the design and development of armoured vehicles. I got my hands on the original publication and I must say it was an amazing read, even if I never make a model. Just the ingenuity and desperation driving the making of these vehicles I think helps explain some of the current Israeli mindset. Highly recommended.
