Those are some great links! If I had to pick just one, it would be the ZBD09 8 x 8 Wheeled Infantry Fighting Vehicle, within your first link and isolated here: link Love to see someone take the whole project on as a unified range. Steve |

A man after my own heart. I love that one too. I'd settle for 1 wheeled apc, 1 tracked apc, and 1 mbt to start! ;-) |

I would absolutely support that! Just above the photo of the ZBD09 is a great shot of a Type 89 Armored Command Vehicle. Love the forest of antennas and relaxed unbuttoned crew. For softskins, I am guessing the Chinese copy most late Russian trucks? It looks like HMMWV's could be used as well: link Steve |

I really like the look of the little 4 x 4! Seems that the Internal Security Forces use it. Based on the narrative it is vulnerable to small arms fire: just the kind of Achilles Heal that I love! Steve |

"Based on the narrative it is vulnerable to small arms fire: just the kind of Achilles Heal that I love!" But because its in the PLA army they will have 30 coming at you at once! |

"Quantity has a quality all its own"! Indeed, the illustration shows a column of more than a dozen! Steve |

Steve & Kyoto, just in case you missed one of my hyperbolic threads about it, the ZBD09 & Type 96A MBT are now available for pre-order from Eureka. I figured, "what the heck". We have PLA infantry coming out from Rebel Minis, LKM/QRF & Eureka this year, so some one is bound to want some shiny AFV's to go along with all that unprotected infantry! Enjoy:

I'm determined to build some of these, just to see how you are going to cope with painting that digital camo ;-) |

Yes, that will be quite a test for the foggy old eyes and wobbly old hands! At least I cant get the white walls wrong! |
