Ah, Black Dog never ceases to amaze. I don’t mean that in a good way. But since time is short this morning, I’ll confine my snarky comments to just one vehicle - the Bushmaster. Who exactly is manning those rear, roof mounted MGs? Where are they standing?
Not even combat photos from Ukraine show them this heavily laden. At least not ones I’ve seen.
Photos from Afghanistan show them more loaded, but very little on top in most cases. Most of it is hung on the sides.
I suppose painting it all up makes for good eye candy at contests.

H.P.

Once again, you fail to see the point. With all the gear over the hatches, how exactly do they access those guns - thus providing some very valuable rear security?
The bottom photo you show, look where the gear is in relation to the last window. Sure, it’s stacked up there. But where are the rear guns in that photo?

Sorry to disappoint you once again. I guess the guy who’s in charge of these pics is not as knowledgeable as you. The main resin bulk is a separate part :

So it’s up to the modeler to use it wisely and not add too much ammo cans, rations,coolers and other stuff around it

H.P.
