Master at Arms
This is my entry for this campaign.
Trumpeter's BTR 70 early version in 1/35th is the base for my Romanian TAB - 77, of which I had the pleasure to see when I was in the army. On top of that, we got to fire the 14.5mm and 7.62mm machine guns at the firing range. No ear protection :vmad :vmad :vmad
Anyway, starting pic
A zoomed in version so the time can be seen
One of the reference pics. This was taken post 1990, but still the same machine.
Fundamentally exactly the same as the Russian BTR 70, even the engine. However, all of it was made in Romania, some components manufactured under licence.
Thanks for looking, I intend to post some progress pics soon.
