With the recent use in Northern Syria, I wonder which Tigr kit is the best. I noticed that the vehicles are equipped with a shot detection system.

I had the Meng kit and I have the hard to get Xact Scale kit. Sold the Meng kit, because the Xact has some nicer features, less simplifications.
Don´t know the Zvezda one.

I liked the Meng kit very much. Looked like proper representation based on the lone reference book (in Russian) I had. Live Resin makes some great resin wheels
and weapons upgrades for the kit too.

Built the Meng kit and it’s “ok”.
Lots of flash and not much detail. Weapons are awful.
X Act is nice but has the wrong hood for syria.
