Some exciting news from Meng with a U.S. Infantry Fighting vehicle on the way.
Meng continues to excite the modeling world, and the latest announcement is no different, a M2A3 Bradley with BUSK III. The kit is stated to include both interior and full engine details. This looks like it will be on a lot of wish lists, unfortunately there is now release date as of yet.

From Meng:
After studying a lot of real vehicle reference material and carrying out complete and detailed design, we have now released this 1/35 scale SS-004 kit –U.S. Infantry Fighting Vehicle M2A3 Bradley w/BUSK III. In addition to features like accurate shape, rich details and perfect fit, this SS-004 kit also provides full hull and turret interiors (incl. engine, transmission and all parts in the driver’s compartment and passenger compartment). The real vehicle’s complete structure and details are precisely replicated with movable hatches, workable tracks, movable suspension and the linkage of the coaxial machine gun sight. The TOW anti-tank missile launcher can be modeled in folded or firing position with or without the missiles. The vehicle can be modeled with or without the ERA modules. What’s more, this kit also provides reasonably complete modern U.S. military antennae. With these options, modelers have more room to build their own M2A3 Bradley IFV models.

I think Meng have really excelled beyond expectation with this vehicle . It is a tribute to this company for bringing the M2 with full engine and interior . If it is anything like the D9 we are in for a quality model . Well done Meng ,look forward to seeing this on shelf . Happy days for the modeller
