Interesting. While it lacks the latest ECM, that can change. It’s can be added without futzing with the existing molds.

Maybe we can hope for a M992A3 CAT? Which of the existing kits is better? RFM or Zimi?

Still have nt seen one mounted. But last communcation with Fort Sill is that I never will there. (When I asked about your cab mounted CROWS)

Wonder if Meng will offer an interior as an add on AM set?

I wonder if the Army will give someone permission to take picture of the “sensitive” interior?

Heh, TBH an A6 interior is probably close enough- gun breech, some radios and screens, ammo storage, gunners sight. Crew gear stowage.

Would be nice is one of these companies made a M992.

Been asking and looking for one like forever. Even posted on the wishlist.
Riich did plan one in 2015 but was cancelled.

Several companies have walk arounds of A2s and A3s. with measurements. But they’re hesitant to invest in something they feel not many people want.

Can’t believe a company from China or Vietnam wouldn’t go for it after the AFV Club attempt. It’s basically the upper hull on a M109 chassis.
Not many users per wikipedia.
