Dragon is in process of renewing 1/72 scale kits of the Bradley items, and now the M6 Linebacker has joined the range.
The M6 Bradley is an air-defense vehicle found in heavy armored divisions, and it mounts four FIM-92A Stinger missiles in the launcher unit on the left of the turret instead of the two TOW missiles in a regular Bradley.
Operated by a crew of four, the Linebacker system employs a FAAD (Forward Area Air Defense) C3I suite that allows firing while stationary or on the move. Ten spare Stinger missiles are carried inside the vehicle.
The 29.9-ton M6 still retains the standard turret armament of an M242 25mm Bushmaster cannon and 7.62mm M240C coaxial machine gun, but the easiest recognition feature remains the turret-mounted missile launcher unit.
This M6 kit is of the type that has seen extensive service in Iraq in recent years. Dragon’s M6 shares most of the highly detailed components of previous Bradley kits, though with an unique launcher unit for the Stinger missiles.
