Leopard 1 Platoon (Plastic)
Though lightly armored, the Leopard 1 tank is fast and well-armed, with a 105mm L7 gun that is more than capable of dealing with any scouting vehicles of the Warsaw Pact.
The West-German-made Leopard 1 was adopted and used by Australian, Canadian and Dutch forces, making it one of the most widely used tanks of the era.
The NATO Leopard 1 Tank Platoon Box can be used to field Canadian, Dutch and Australian Forces.
M113 MRV Platoon
As the eyes and ears of the 1st Brigade, 2 Cavalry Regiment's Troops of MRVs (Medium Reconnaissance Vehicle) are the tip of the spear. Backing up the lighter M113 LRV, the M113 MRV is the direct descendant of the Saladin turreted FSV (Fire Support Vehicle).
M113 (T50) Platoon (Plastic)
Affectionately known as the 'Bucket', the M113 provides the 'Diggers' with fire support from a combination of .50 cal M2 and .30 cal M1919 Browning machineguns in a T50 Cadillac Gage one-man turret. The U.S.-made M125 is a popular choice to provide the 'Diggers' with relief when under 'red' attack. Whether it be smoke on demand, illumination at night, or highly accurate HE, the boys of the 'Mortar Tracks' get rounds downrange as needed, pronto.
Mechanised Platoon
The 5/7th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment is the only mechanized battalion in the Australian Army and is the largest mechanized battalion in the world at this time. The battalion is made up of four rifle companies, totaling twelve infantry platoons, an admin company, and a support company with anti-tank, assault pioneer, machinegun, and sniper platoons.
Milan Section
The Milan missile is a modern man-portable, light anti-tank missile. Its small size makes the missile team easy to dig in and conceal, yet it can penetrate most tanks. Its heavy weight has meant that cavalry and mounted units are the main users of this system. Crews prefer to operate near vehicles rather than manually carrying reloads.
Anti-Tank Land Rover Section
The 106mm Recoilless on a Short Wheel Base Landrover 88 has seen extensive Aussie service, being useful as both an anti-bunker, as well as an anti-tank, weapon. The 'Gun Buggy' provides a potent weapon that is lethal against both medium and light armor. An ideal weapon for an ambush.
