I got the M88 flack for the battle of the budgle and wanted to add a truck of some sort but woooo.

I looked at the tamiya famo 1/2 tracks without the trailer and holy cow that is a good expensive price $70 or more. I wanted to have a M88 flack with that but too much money.

Who else makes the famo?

Or maybe a new idea of a dio; what else could be used with the M88 flack to move it or to bring ammo to and stuff.

Happy Modeling

Tom,
No one else does a Famo I'm afraid. But you are in luck on another front. the Famo was not really used as a prime mover of the Flak 88. the SdKfz 7 was this guns prime mover and is available for about 1/2 the cost of the Famo from Tamiya.

Bryan is correct. But if you wanted to mount the 88 on the vehicle, the FAMO is a good start. Tony Greenland did one of these, and a step by step is in his book. There also is an artillery conversion for the FAMO, but it pulled much larger calibre weapons.

The other poster was correct about the FAMO not being used to haul around the Flak 36 or Flak 37. That would have been a little overkill.

The Tamiya Sdkfz 7 was the appropriate prime mover for the Flak 18/36/37 series.

In thinking through your diorama, consider that the initial phases of the Battle of the Bulge were very fluid with German forces punching through static Allied lines. The Flak 36 or Flak 37 would have been allocated to follow up echelons -- probably providing air cover near important defensive points.

I'm not sure how close to the front heavy flak units would have been. Perhaps someone with an order of battle can clarify this?

Sorry guys, but there's an other FAMO out !
It's in resin by DES KITS, a french company.
OK, it's going to be more expensive than the tamiya kit...

Actually, Revell is coming out with a 1/72 one and Planet Models does a resin 1/72 one too.
