Hi all...I've these questions:
To realize a correct T-72B I need:

Tamiya(which I prefer) T-72m1kit
Miniarm T-72B dolly parton conversion set
Miniarm T-72 tracks set
Eduard Pe for T-72M

Anything else?!Do I need to use miniarm relative conversion set for wheels or can I use the ones in tamiya kit?
Anyone have build this with these things!?
Can I use on it Skif KMT-6?!or are there problems about fitting?!
Have you used skif Kmt-6?!write your feedback please....

Thanks in advance!!

The SKIF KMT-6 is very plain and is lacking in quite a bit of detail. However, it is better than scratchbuilding and unless you have a picture of the KMT-6 with you, it is hard to notice many of the problems.

I am building one right now on my T-62M and it is good enough. The placement of the cylinders onthe glacis and the piping that runs from them is questionable, and the pulleys are really too simple.

The Tamiya kit is the best T-72 to use. The Miniarm conversion is the best available, including the tracks and wheels.

Have fun!
