Probably didn’t help the accuracy of that main gun much, no?

Looking at this picture, makes me wish that some of the major model manufacturers produced some commercial flat bed transporter vehicles in 1/35. We have plenty in 1/24 and 1/25, but I’m not aware of much if any in 1/35. Endless diorama and presentation possibilities if you think about it!

The old Verlinden IDF trailer 1/35 scale drawings still have some good days ahead…

Heller makes several 1/32 Volvo trucks - you might have to scratch the 2nd set of rear axials. Or you could use another 3 axial chassis.
There are 1/32 die-cast (horrors) Volvo and MAN trucks that could give the latest style commercial cabs.
It would be a start.

Good observation, given there are modern MAZ, HET, and Faun tank transporters out there in 1/35, why not Volvo, MAN et al?

The guys from 3D MicroCosmos have just announced a 1/35th scale Katlanit for the Meng Namer. It looks amazing.

It can even be printed without the 50 Cal, allowingit to be empty or have a FN mag added.
