" The next update for my Team Yankee Soviet force is a battery of S21 Gvozdika self propelled howitzers. The Gvozdika 'Carnation' is a 122mm self propelled howitzer used by the Soviet Union from the 1970's to today.

The miniatures are 1/100th scale (15mm) kits by Zvezda that I picked up on the Warstore for $7.99 USD each. These kits went together much better than the Shilka's as the Gvozdika's have far fewer pieces, and less fragile ones.

Hmmm….. $12 USD-13 each for BF, or $8 USD Zvezda….? (QRF = $12 USDish?)

I'm buying the plastics when I can, but sometimes the BF models are enough better to make the price tolerable.

For example, the QRF Sheridans are bare, while the BF Sheridans come with full stowage and the gun tub for the commander, plus decals.

According to Squadron MSRP for the 2S1 is $9.95 USD. They are selling it for $6.57 USD.
