About friggin' time! I thought they announced this as coming well over two years ago. And what ever happened to that M992?

Good bye, conversions! Finally! I remember Riich also announced the M992, but neither they nor the AFV for some reason do not give any more news.

Woohoo!!!! Hopefully it will have an interior as well? That would top it off nicely!!!

Most likely won't, but Black Dog makes a decent M109A2 interior for AFV clubs initial M109A2, and Real Model has a very nice engine and trans set, but is getting harder to find on the net these days
