This is a plea to all AFV builders! Below, you'll find a list of the current participants in the Suez campaign that recently started. Quite a nice mix, but as you can see - we could definitely use some more armour!!



I'm thinking Israeli Super Shermans, British Centurions and Egyptian Stalins, just to name a few...

Besides, you'll get the chance to teach some hard headed aircraft builders the finer art of building ground targets...


Cheers!

I think I'll fit in with Egyptian JS 3 by trumpeter.

Cheers

Welcome to the campaign, Grzegorz!

I was first a little concerned that the Egyptians did not receive their JS 3's until the 1960's, but then I found this (here):
The Egyptian army received the first three JS-3's at the end of the 1950's. On June 23, 1956, JS-3's took part in a military "Independence Day" parade in Cairo, but most of Egypts' JS-3's were delivered from 1962 to 1967.

In other words, the JS 3 is approved! :-)



Now how 'bout some heavy Israeli and/or British armour... Any takers?!

Cheers!
