Yet another model i can not identify. I know its NATO and its an 8 wheeled armoured vehicle that looks like a Pirahna but it has what I take to be a TOW on the side of the turret.
There are a couple of pictures on the link but photography is not my strong suit.
Any ideas gratefully received.

Pete,
It might be but could you tell me what 'this' is?
Thanks,
Pat

A LAV-25 or Stryker?

I am glad everyone else is as at a loss as I am. The model came as a job lot from a late 80's early 90's collection so it could not have been a Patria. I am now beginning to wonder if the body and the turrets have been mis matched. Havever there are 9 of them so that seems unlikely. I think it may be a Bradley turret on a LAV hull but that didn't ever happen did it?

I think some ones deliberately swapped turrets from Bradleys to an LAV hull - either to approximate something else (maybe the Patria?), or maybe something "Imagi-Nation" wise - LAV-25 with TOW or similar?

Here we go again. this time its a West German vehicle. To me it looks like a Jagdpanzer Kanone with the barrel area plated over. Can any one tell me what it really is?
Here are a couple of photos:-

Pat,
In the 80s some were converted in to artillery op vehicles by removing the main gun.
cheers
