    I think it will be the decals being for specific units.

        Probably because his paintings didn’t sell well enough to pay the rent.

        More seriously, that style of moustache was fairly popular until the 1940s. For some reason, it fell out of favour around then …

          This is a replacement for the MSTA-S with new 152mm gun, 'roboticised' and an automated reloading system. Impressive looking

              That barrel! I should think that driving through city streets, or along a forest track could be a little fraught!

                    .... or SP gun, double decker bus and terrified passenger staring down the barrel as it comes through the back window.

                        Kind of surprising it’s taken them this long to release more Centurion variants, especially ones easy enough to do from the Mk. 5 kit they already released what, ten, fifteen years ago?

                        I’m kind of hoping they’ll update it to Mk. 7 (and derivatives) standard, though, with the longer hull and engine deck, like in a recent model by Guest.

                          Good news but a Swedish Strv104 would have been nice or Danish late version with rangefinder and thermal sights.Canadian version be nice and late U.K versions.

                                That would require quite a lot of changes to the kit, mainly the turret. Maybe there is some hope for later variants as well, then (Or not, of course.))
