Hay doc

Perfect .....i need a wee it of info ...nothing secret ...the smoke granade launchers either side of the turret ....there seems to be two versions ...one is a big casting ..looks like a cauliflower ...the other seems to be tubes mountain on a plate .....is that how i can yell the difference between marines ..and army ......

Also seen some fab pics of an upgrade m1a5 ...with a totally different ballistic protection package ....the clams are fine ..work well ...but to ' fragile
In that they keep getting ripped off when the abrams is on the move

Good Afternoon,
This is an amazing Build. What a lot of components you have working together. The Plasticard work on the armor is beautiful as well. Don't let another two years go by without an update on this unique work.
regards,
Painless
