This is my model of an Ajax / Scout tank commissioned by General Dynamics …Turret rotates and barrel moves up and down….it’s pretty rare 👍

. No worries buddy. Their Models are very impressive….they even have an upgrade service and repairs….dread to think how much these things cost ! I did call them ages ago and they said that GD only commissioned a handful of them….I think all the ones done are pictured together on their website….that includes the one I have 👍

I do have to wonder, can it be made to drive or is the running gear completely locked in place?

I know it can be removed from the plinth …….I’ve never checked about the tracks…it’s heavy so I think it’s a solid block
