Thank you Trumpeter - one of those eternally sinister Soviet battlefield weapons I recall from those far-off grainy recognition pamphlets. All we need now are some NATO opposition - an AFV Club Honest John perhaps...?

Not much looks more like Death, on tracks. I agree with Boots. Let's see some NATO counterparts. The Sergeant missile on mobile launch platform would be my grail. However, thank you Trumpeter. Building a complete Soviet military is getting closer and closer.

I'd forgotten about the Sergeant - probably because the British Army didn't use it. However, you've jogged my memory and I recall in the mid to late 70s when stationed at a large NATO/Brit HQ near Monchengladbach, we had to undertake a weeks military training every Summer, and the location was smack next to a Bundeswehr Sergeant missile site and once, when tactically disporting ourselves in the woods, I remember a distant glimpse of the missile being tested. I never quite knew what the Sergeant system consisted of until much, much later so a kit of it would be very welcome indeed. In the meantime, I'm so grateful to Trumpeter for realising kits that I never thought I'd see in injected plastic.
