The box art shows and does include a color scheme for a PLO version in Beirut in 1982.

For some reason I couldn't get all the images from MiniArt site yesterday. Now the complete set of images is in the news report, together with color profiles of vehicle variants included in this kit.

Your description is wrong, the country in which the tanks have been produced was Czechoslovakia at that time and the factory is actually located in Slovakia, there was never anything like a Czech produced T-34.

National pride speaking there. At the time the two halves were united as "CZECHOSLOVAKIA" so the descriptive is technically correct; it was only after the dissolution of the country into its two principle components parts that your Slovak distinction makes any difference. Either way, impressive kit regardless of where it was produced.

I think Marcel is commenting on the title of the news story as I abbreviated Czechoslovak into Czech to save space. Sorry about that.
