French Main Battle Tank

An announcement from Meng Model has a great looking French Cold War tank heading our way.

Meng has announced they have an AMX-30B2 on the way. The AMX-30 was first delivered to the French Army in 1966. In the early 1970’s a modernization of the tank was completed with new gun stabilization, a dual-purpose coaxial upgrade to 20mm, a new firing control system, and a new designation of AMX-30B2. The new kit from Meng will have workable track links, clear parts, photo-etched parts, and more.

TS-013 AMX-30B2 French Main Battle Tank

Armorama would like to thank Meng Model for the update.

Already have two unbuilt Mengs in my stash, but this is very unusual and I'm intrigued.

You can check the in-box review in this very site, to get an idea about Meng's first AMX-30 kit: LINK We might expect same quality for the new version...

Heller also has a set of individual tracks available, this could help your build perhaps, they are really well done.

Cheers, Christophe

I'll get one of these...I really enjoyed Meng's other version of the AMX-30. They'll look cool sitting next to each other.
