Although I won’t be buying these, I did buy the Ferret interior from Scorpion to use on the Airfix Ferret, which I just couldn’t resist and was impressed both by the fulness of the set, covering three different versions and two different radio options, together with the comprehensive instructions. For those “modernists” among us their stuff is highly recommended.

A side note on NI deployment,we took ours in ‘73’ and after getting there the order to remove the floatation screen was given as it was deemed a flame trap from petrol bombs etc!( they never did go back on correctly

Probably not a bad thing, if theres one thing I would not like to do is float something armoured. The scope for disaster is far to high in my book!
