List of vehicles coming in 2012!

[Leon]

After the excellent work on the three Russian models which arrived a couple of weeks ago (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,4625.0.html), modelled by new Forum member mart678, we've put together the vehicle design schedule for the next 10 months or so!

The lists has been put together mainly using the Requests lists, plus the items needed for the Falkland's range.  I hope there's something here for everyone (Aztecs and Tarleton's aside!), and hopefully this means that Ianrs54 can stop going on about his tanks...  

WWI / AVBCW
Seabrook Armoured Car

WWII
British
Comet A34
CMP 15 CWT Truck
Humber LRC

Soviet
BA-10
T-40

Italian
M11/39
Lancia 3RO truck
Fiat L6/40

Vietnam/Indo-China/etc
M24 Chaffee
Mk III Centurion
Mk V Centurion
T-54/55

Falklands
Scorpion
Scimitar
Land Rover
Snowcat
Panhard AML-90 A/C
Mercedes G-Wagon Jeep
LVTP-7

 

PS, these are the vehicles on Mart678's list, there are other vehicles being done by other folk elsewhere...

Woohoo! Superb

Good stuff - except the Mk 3 and Mk 5 Centurions are in effect identical - the changes are all internal - changed BESA for Browning and deleted 2" mortar. Assume you are intending to do 2 Turrets - 1 with the fume extractor and one not. 2 Hulls would be useful, with and without Bazooka plates. Third turret with an asymetric fume extractor covers all but upgraded Isralai ones. That should make all the intelligent followers of this forum happy - cause those with the hat fixation will moan.

Whoops - forgot - British army stopped using Arabic mark nos in 48, so all Cents after Mk II are listed in arabic ones.

I Know - Pedant.

The designer has already come back to me with the same info, so it'll be 1 hull / 2 turrets for the Centurions, and 1 hull / 1 turret / 2 barrels for the T54/T55's as well.

This is good news and hopefully the slippery slope to some T64/72/80s, Chieftains Challengers and all.  Possibly a Conquerer  as no one else does these.

RE: Cents, they and the T55 mean the Arab/Israeli wars are a possibility. So you would need a a Cent with a 105mm. I think the first to get it was the Mk5/2, in effect a retro fit (I'd better check). That is possibly what the designer was thinking?

Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you. Now I just have to be patient.

If I were quibbling, I'd say that you're missing an M48A3 ....

Two hulls - for 'nam you need No bazooka plates, most other areas used them. Also - M48.

A nice range there to keep most of us happy .

Fills most of the gaps in the post WW2 era.

Might mention the PT76 again. Important in Viet Nam and elsewhere.

Some of these are very welcome.

Any news on doing some more artillery pieces? :-)

Also on a workbench elsewhere...

Which ones in particular?  I've got some Italian pieces which should be ready for March.

Excellent - as I was mainly thinking about Italian.  The other standout is the Soviet 76mm M27 or M43 infantry howitzer that I've been wittering about on and off for years :-)
