Dragon has been constantly expanding its popular 1/72 scale range of model Leichter Panzerspahwagen light reconnaissance vehicles. An Sd.Kfz.260 was released a short time ago, and now Dragon is offering yet another interesting variant. This time it is an Sd.Kfz.261. The Sd.Kfz.260 and 261 were similar in that they were both designed for signals units, with a total of 493 produced from November 1940 through till April 1943. They were designed specifically as armored (but unarmed) radio communication vehicles. The Sd.Kfz.261 was fitted with a FuG.12 long-range radio set connected to a frame antenna and also a telescopic antenna. In due course the Sd.Kfz.260/261 family was replaced by halftrack radio vehicles. Dragon’s 1/72 scale model makes use of the newly tooled Sd.Kfz.260. It has brand new parts such as the frame antenna and the exquisitely produced telescopic antenna mounted on the left side of the hull. These radio components provide the Sd.Kfz.261 with a unique silhouette and cause it to really stand out from other members of the Leichter Panzerspahwagen family. The hull-top opening is made of plastic, this material being much easier to work with than photo-etched parts. After painting in appropriate colors, modelers can apply Cartograf high-quality decals to finish off their distinctive-looking Sd.Kfz.261!

BMD-1 – Ace Models 72114

Een model van het merk Ace-modellen de kit: BMD-1 – Ace Models 72114.

BMD-1. -Boevaya Mashina Desanta (Airborne Combat Vehicle) – is ontworpen als een tegenhanger in de lucht van het beste gepantserde infanterievoertuig van het leger, de BMP-1. Beide voertuigen deelden hetzelfde bewapeningssysteem: een eenmanskoepel met een 73 mm Grom lagedrukkanon en een lanceerinrichting voor de 9M14M Maliutka antitankraket. Omdat de BMD is ontworpen voor drops in de lucht, moesten de grootte en het gewicht aanzienlijk worden ingekort - gevechtsgeladen gewicht onder de 7 ton (meer dan 13 voor BMP).

Een model van het merk Ace-modellen de kit: Horse drawn wagon (Type 36) with Zwillingslafette 36 – Ace Models 72510.

Als. 5 paard getrokken wagen (Type 36) met Zwillingslafette 36. Tijdens de burgeroorlog in Spanje ontdekten Duitsers dat vliegtuigondersteuning erg belangrijk werd in een moderne oorlog en van de andere kant heeft elke infanterieformatie actieve verdediging tegen de vijandelijke luchtvaart nodig. De Zwillingslafette 36 werd in de vroege oorlogstijd voornamelijk op een wagen gemonteerd en gebruikt als luchtverdedigingswapen voor infanterie-eenheden op mars. De gebruikte wagen was de zogenaamde Einachshänger – de If. 5 MG wagen. Het was een kleine aanhanger die voor dat specifieke doel werd gebruikt. Het kon door een paard worden getrokken of door een kleine vrachtwagen worden getrokken. De wagen kan worden geschoord door vijzels wanneer deze wordt gebruikt in een statische luchtverdedigingsrol of op het bed van kleine vrachtwagens of op auto's worden gemonteerd.

Photo gallery of a A-7B Corsair II, The Ling-Temco-Vought A-7 Corsair II is a carrier-capable subsonic light attack aircraft introduced to replace the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk. The A-7 airframe design was based on the successful supersonic Vought F-8 Crusader. It was one of the first combat aircraft to feature a head-up display (HUD), an inertial navigation system (INS), and a turbofan engine. The Corsair II initially entered service with the United States Navy during the Vietnam War. It was later adopted by the United States Air Force, including the Air National Guard, to replace the Douglas A-1 Skyraider, North American F-100 Super Sabre and Republic F-105 Thunderchief. The aircraft was also exported to Greece in the 1970s, and Portugal in the late 1980s.

The Israel Aircraft Industries Kfir is an Israeli-built all-weather, multirole combat aircraft based on a modified French Dassault Mirage 5 airframe, with Israeli avionics and an Israeli-made version of the General Electric J79 turbojet engine. The project that would ultimately give birth to the Kfir can be traced back to Israel’s need for adapting the Dassault Mirage IIIC to the specific requirements of the Israeli Air Force (IAF). The all-weather, delta-winged Mirage IIICJ was the first Mach 2 aircraft acquired by Israel from then close ally France, and constituted the backbone of the IAF during most of the 1960s, until the arrival of the A-4 Skyhawk and, most importantly, the F-4 Phantom II, by the end of the decade. While the Mirage IIICJ proved to be extremely effective in the air-superiority role, its relatively short range of action imposed some limitations on its usefulness as a ground-attack aircraft.
