In FSM's latest Great Scale Modelling there's a gallery pic of someone who converted a 1/35 Soviet tractor into a BM-13 vehicle with Katyusha rockets. I've seen a few Katyusha carrying vehicles in 1/72 but they're all trucks. Does anyone know if there is a similar Soviet tractor in Braille Scale? My internet research has turned up naught. I don't mind trying a kitbash if the tractor doesn't have the rockets.

I don't look at the mag any more but I think you might mean the STZ5 by AER Moldova. They do make one with the Katyusha.

18Bravo, that's the one!!!

Wow, and I see that greatmodels carries it too. In fact AER has a whole slew of bizarre military tractors. Cool.

Any idea on the quality of these resin kits from AER?

Thanks so much!

As far as resin goes, you could do a lot worse. I like them.

Excellent. I'll take that as a positive endorsement! I haven't worked much with resin. Should be interesting.
