Her some quick snaps of my ongoing project. M998 Stinger Supply Carrier.
That Stinger rack/frame is a real PITA to build. Working parallel on a dismounted Stinger crew.

Looking great. Do you have any drawings of the storage rack in the back? I was thinking of doing the same thing.
Hi Gino,
sorry no drawings,. I use a couple of pics from an exercise and the EurekaXXL Stinger Chest as refernece. Maybe I should make a drawing?
The pics are great. If you could do a drawing though, it would be even better. 
I try to make a drawing this WE. But now I have to celebrate my new job after my employer went bankrupt.
Sieht voll jut aus! Viel GlĂĽck mit den SchiebetĂĽren hinten.
SchiebetĂĽren?
Don’t those doors in the back slide? It sure looks like it.
Hi Rob,
damn I never noted that there are SchiebetĂĽren. I always wondered how those missile cases are held in place. Thanks for the observaton.
4-3 ADA is my old unit. Brings back memories. Looks like that was the ramp up for OIF II in GTA/HTA.
Images were taken in 2001 and 2002, the SETAF truck mid 90s at GTA. The trucks were providing air cover for 1st ID 1-4 CAV, led by LTC H.R. McMaster - a fine guy btw
Thanks Hermann. Looks great.
Gino you owe me a cold one!
I prefer German Beer! Make the most out of it.
Some progress today. Added the SchiebetĂĽren and found some PE diamond mesh. But most will be covered by a camo net bag as on the real vehicle.

Looking really nice. Great job. 
This is a really ingesting build Hermann. Was this thing meant to resupply Avenger units with reloads?
Hi Don, not much is written about the SSC. there is a small part in Verlinden´s Warmachine No.7 that describes the vehicle “The Stinger missile carrier is used to supply the forward units with hand-fired Stinger missles”. I think it was conceived as a makeshift AD vehicle before the appearance of the Avenger.
