I can buy a new tank for that , exchange rate and postage are a killer down here. The Merkava cost me AUD$20 more 
!!I have a set of RMSh tracks for the Hooben T-55A and a set of RMSh tracks for the Heng Long T-72. They tracks I have aren't interchangeable between the two tanks as the T-55A tracks are narrower and the T-72 version comes with it's own sprocket. The pattern on the sprocket is slightly different than the HL. The T-55A RMSh tracks were made by Kenny Kong and sold through Ludwigs. The T-72 RMSh tracks are currently made by Attracks. Both are/were pretty expensive. Why are the Hooben tracks narrower? Who knows as they are supposed to be interchangeable between the two tanks.Raminator wrote: ↑Thu Oct 26, 2023 9:33 am I found one set left on AliExpress if you're quick and pretend the price is in yen or lira. Early-style T-72 RMSh tracks would work too, but it doesn't look like anyone makes those.
I think that's just manufacturing differences between the two brands. In reality they are the same track. I have them in my t72 and t55tankme wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2023 12:45 amI have a set of RMSh tracks for the Hooben T-55A and a set of RMSh tracks for the Heng Long T-72.
