Here’s the thing, I’ve search for sometime looking for a 1/35th Stryker. Not having to find one leaves me to believe there isn’t such kit. While doing my search I was able to gather up some reference photos on the Stryker, and the answers to a few questions from the some of you.

Question 1.…I’m in the need of overall dimensions, like height, length, width and wheelbase for starters and what ever else you can help out with that may help me. Also any of the openings and dimensions along the sides and top of the Stryker.

Question 2.…if I’m able to get started using such info, what can I use for wheels. Is there anything in away of a kit that can provide there’s wheels such as a HEMTT kit?

Anything I can come up with will be drawn as a blue print that I will share with anyone who also may want to build a Stryker.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi.

Here is a Trumpeter prototype build of the soon to come Stryker that was done for a show not too long ago (sorry, I don't know which one) The box art is also included





Take care,

I sure hope so!!

Can't wait to get it. I've had it on preorder now for a couple of months so I am really looking forward to it.

Wow...I guess there no since doing one. Looks pretty good. During all the search's the Trumpeter never came up, even using images. I guess it's how it's worded. Thanks for the photos.

This looks like it will be a fun build!

I see these rolling up and down Interstate 5 all the time. There are a few Stryker brigades located at Fort Lewis, WA and I live about 30 miles away. If you have never seen one in person, they are very impressive. It is also very impressive to see 10 or more of them doing 60 mph while cars pass honking their horns and waving (with ALL fingers) at the crews. Very impressive indeed.
