New Armortek models announced E-mail
Tuesday, 29 June 2010 07:30

Armortek have announced a new tank model.  It is actually three variants of one tank, the Panther.

They are all based on the same "universal" hull (top left).  The variants are Bergepanther (top right), the Jagdpanther  (bottom left) and the Panther Ausf G (bottom right).

This is a very exciting model and a great way of providing several interesting variants of the same tank.

For more information check out Armortek's website http://www.armortek.co.uk/.

I am currently deciding whether to add one of these variants to my growing build list.
