Eh, Im sure some people would by 2 of each.

I'd love to see the Russian Black Eagle MBT, but that would be for sci-fi use.

I will add a vote for the Iraqi T-55 ENIGMA, though:

Can I repeat a suggestion to both Khurasan and QRF for a sprue of active defense add-ons?

You know, Arena, Shtora, Iron Dome, Quick Kill, etc? Not to mention a set of antennas for all the IED jammers.

While I love the T-55 Enigma it was only used by Iraq, as far as I know, and barely at that.

Perhaps a modular T-55 set Eli? One where the chassis is basic but different turrets can be ordered (or sets if add on armor?).

Here is a list of Operators and variants:

The #'s still in service are staggering, as are the variants.

Given developments on the Turkish border, id say the Otokar Cobra would be a timely and relevant addition:

Love the Cobra. T-55 options would be a way to go, but there are often other minor variations besides turret that are easier to accomplish with a new chassis sculpt.

That said, once you have a solid T-55 model it should be too great a task to modify a master to accommodate different variations, especially if your model is done digitally.

I've just noticed the lack of a KMT5 mine-clearing system for sticking onto the front of Russian tanks.
